Letter dated 20 September 2002 from the Permanent Observer of Palestine to the
United Nations addressed to the President of the Security Council
In my capacity as Chairman of the Arab Group for the month of September 2002, and on behalf of the States members of the League of Arab States, I have the honour to request the convening of an immediate meeting of the Security Council to consider the continued escalation of the Israeli military aggression against the Palestinian people and the Palestinian Authority in total disregard of the resolutions of the Security Council, in particular resolution 1402 (2002) and 1403 (2002).
The Arab Group requests that the Security Council consider the adoption of the necessary immediate measures to ensure an end to the current tragic situation and the implementation of the Security Council resolutions referred to above.
