The work of the Council of the League of Arab States at the summit level at its 33rd session kicked off in the Bahraini capital Manama on Thursday, in the presence of kings, presidents and leaders of Arab countries.
Bahrain’s King Hamad bin Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa inaugurated the summit, which he took over from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, representing King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.
In his speech, the King of Bahrain said: “The Arab summit is being held amid very complex regional and international circumstances of devastating wars, painful humanitarian tragedies and threats that affect our nation’s identity, security, sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity.
The King continued: "In light of the denial of the legitimate rights to which the Palestinian people are subjected, there is an increasing need to develop a common and urgent Arab position that adopts a method of collective solidarity to stop the bleeding of wars and establish a final and just peace as an irreplaceable option if we want to win our human will in the battle for peace."
The King pointed out that Bahrain is advancing a number of initiatives to contribute to serving the core issues of stability in the region, namely: calling for an international conference on peace in the Middle East, full recognition of the State of Palestine and its admission to membership in the United Nations and providing educational and health services to those affected by conflicts and disputes in the region.

Bangladesh is witnessing widespread unrest against the backdrop of student protests against the quota system in government jobs.
The Bangladeshi authorities issued a decision to stop the mobile Internet network throughout the country, in an attempt to ensure the security of citizens, according to what was stated by the Minister of Communications, Zunaid Ahmed Palak.
The events came after the University Grants Commission in Bangladesh ordered the closure of universities and the immediate evacuation of students from the buildings for security reasons. The decisions included the closure of secondary schools, colleges and other educational institutions.
