The Arab League will hold emergency talks today to discuss the situation in the Gaza Strip after a series of Israeli air strikes on the enclave, the deputy leader of the group said.
"The Arab League will hold an emergency meeting on Sunday, at the request of Palestine, to examine the repercussions of the dangerous situation following Israel's continuous aggression on Gaza," Ahmed Ben Helli told AFP on Saturday.
He said the meeting will be attended by the permanent delegates of the 22-member pan-Arab organisation which has its headquarters in Cairo.
Fourteen people were killed Thursday and Friday in Israeli air strikes on Gaza which began hours after an attack blamed by Israel on a radical Palestinian group.
