    Sheds light on the act of killing the prisoner Mohamad Sati Al
      torturing his elder brother Loay leading to total paralysis
             and displacing his second brother Osaimer
     in addition to the many afflictions endured by their family

                     Three Brothers Tragedy"
        Report entitled "The
        Mohamad, Loay and Osaimer Al Ashqar”

                            Date: 26/10/2007


Since May 1993 and over a period of 14 years, Al Ashqar's house in
Saida Village (Tolkarim Province) in the occupied Palestinian West Bank
has been exposed to 25 military raids undertaken by the Israeli
Occupational Forces (IOF) and their security squads.

The story poses a true tragedy overwhelming the three sons who have
been subjected to grave abuses by the IOF that shot dead the family's son
Mohamad Sati Al Ashqar (24 years) during the after-mid-night attack on
sections 5 and 6 at the desert Naqab detention facility on 22/10/2007.

The brutalizing of the family's eldest son Loay Sati Al Ashqar (31 years)
at the hands of the Israeli SHABAC interrogators at Kishon detention
facility three days after the date of his detention on 22 April 2007 caused
the prisoner a permanent physical palsy.

The recurrent raids, the continuing acts of sabotage and assaults carried
out on the family's house by the IOF led to the disappearance of the
youngest son Osaimer (24 years) who straggled away from his family
because he did not want to endure the afflictions experienced by his two
brothers. Still the house of Al Ashqar's family is being exposed to
repeated raids in search of the runaway son while the family members
continuously receive threats of killing their homeless son in case he does
not surrender to the IOF

During one of the ongoing raids on Al Ashqar's house which took place
on 14/6/2007, the IOF killed Osaimer's young friend named Mohamad
Abdel Jabbar Tweer (23 years from the neighbouring village of Ateel)
who was found in the family's house yard and was mistaken for their
wanted target.

In another attack the IOF damaged, among many other products, the
season’s whole olives harvest of the family (weighing about two tons /
2000 kgs).

  The raid on sections 5 and 6 / the Naqab desert detention facility
    By the Israeli security Services of Metsada and Nakhshon
                  Time: One thirty after midnight

The Organization obtained a detailed report on the violent raid
undertaken by the IOF on the Naqab desert detention facility 22/10/2007
after midnight. The story goes that large forces comprising 550 soldiers
attached to the Israeli security units of Metsada and Nakhshon raided
sections 5 and 6 at one thirty after midnight under the pretext of searching
for illegal possessions and moving active prisoners. This act contravenes

a prior agreement to stop the sudden night searches after the evening
check is over was concluded between the prisoners and the jails

The prisoners tried to defend themselves during the attacks carried out by
the Israeli security squads backed up by huge police forces that were
equipped with "powder" gas pipes, shieldings, thunder flashes, tear
bombs and incendiary pepper machine guns. They opened fires at the
prisoners who were also beaten with batons. The state of alertness as well
as the raids on the two sections undertaken by the prison administration
came as a reaction against the prisoners' protestation against the raids and
search. The prisoners' defensive attempts provoked the Israeli forces'
heavy shootings which set the tents in the said sections on fire.

As flames flared up in the two sections the rest of the Metsada and
Nakhshon militants continued to raid the other prisoners' sections at one
time. The attacks were met with voices of solidarity from other prisoners
occupying the other sections in the detention facility bring to an end the
assaults on the prisoners in the mentioned sections which lasted till dawn.

Afterwards the jail administration moved the prisoners of section 5,
including a good number of cases with wounds, burns and suffocation, to
punitive dungeons. During this operation, the members of Israeli army
forces had their position in two opposite lines surrounding the prisoners
who were brutally beaten by the soldiers while leaving their sections. 200
prisoners were placed in the 80 square meter-visitors' room during the
visit time and were attacked by the Metsada forces causing the serious
injury of Mohamad Al Ashqar and other critical casualties.

All the prisoners were brought back to section 5 after they had been
placed in the dungeons for hours except for Bajes Nakhla who was still
detained in the solitary confinement.

The consequences of the raids and shootings:

    250 Palestinian prisoners suffer from wounds, burns, suffocation
     and various bruises.
    Some prisoners suffer from head and chest injuries, three of them
     have serious wounds. They were identified as Osama Sawafta from
     Toubas, Sofian Jamjoum from Hebron and Tayseer Al Je'eba.
    The killing of Mohamad Sati Al Ashqar (24 years).

    Burning the tents belonging to sections 5 and 6 in addition to all
     the prisoners' possessions which were kept inside the tents.

                   The circumstances accompanying
                the Killing of Mohamad Sati Al Ashqar
            in the desert Naqab detention facility (Kitzeot)

The release of sound and gas bombs into the prisoners' tents as well as the
raids and beating with batons by the Metsada and Nakhshon Militants had
set the tents on fire causing the burning of the prisoners' possessions
including their clothes, books and electrical machines among others, not
to mention the casualties of burns, wounds and suffocation among the

The attack on the prisoners' sections took place amidst heavy firings,
brutal beating with batons as the military forces led out the enchained
prisoners without consideration of their injuries and illnesses. The
prisoners' hands were tied to their back with plastic chains and they were
beaten and dragged on the floor.

The raiding forces placed 200 prisoners in the 80 square-meter-visitors'
room during the visit time and opened fire at them causing the severe
injury of Mohamad Al Ashqar and other serious casualties.

Representatives of the prisoners approached the administration officer
with a request to enforce tranquility in order to pull out the wounded
prisoners, but were exposed to shootings causing a number of casualties
among them while the administration shut off all chances of dialogue
with the prisoners' representatives.

Mohamad Sati Al Ashqar, a prisoner holding number 197, was shot in the
right side of his head with a piercing bullet that went out from the back of
his head. He had been in a state of clinical death since the early morning
hours on Monday 22/10/2007 following his admission to Soroka hospital

in Beer Al Sabe'e. The injury caused failure in his brain functions and the
doctors' endeavours to stop the brain bleeding failed leading to death.

The IOF treated the wounded prisoner in an inhumane manner as he lay
hand-cuffed on the hospital bed when only his mother, wife and mother-
in-law were allowed to see him through arrangements with the
International Commission of the Red Cross. The visit was short and none
of them was permitted to attend to him during his stay in the hospital.

Al Ashqar family confirmed that during the visit Mohamad was lying
handcuffed on his bed though he was clinically dead. Loay Al Ashqar,
the prisoner's brother, said that his mother reprehended the ruthless and
inhumane treatment of her son before his actual death that the occupation
is merciless and does not abide by the international conventions and
treaties that safeguard the human life, dignity and property.

The deceased prisoner's brother reported that his mother saw two jailers
at the door of his brother's room in the hospital in addition to two more
inside the room. Mr. Loay wondered whether the occupational authorities
would stop telling lies to conceal the fact of using live bullets to suppress
the prisoners. The bullet that pierced Mohammad’s head out of the back
of his head could not be a rubber bullet and surely it was shot at his head
from a very short distance.

According to a report aired by the Israeli broadcast station, the Israeli jails
administration refused to "clarify the methods applied by its soldiers to
suppress the Palestinian prisoners at Naqab jail on the morning of
Monday 22/10/2007 and settled for forming a fact finding committee".

                   The family of Mohamad Al Ashqar

The deceased prisoner Mohamad Al Ashqar is married with a child
named Mojahid (3 years). He was detained three times; the first was in
1993 when he was imprisoned for a period of 20 months. The
imprisonment periods of the other two occasions were short while he was
imprisoned for the forth time for 26 months in 2005. He supposedly had
to endure two more months in prison when he was killed by the Israeli
security groups as his release was due on 13 December 2007.

His elder brother Loay suffers from paralysis resulting from the brutal
torture to which he was subjected by the Israeli interrogators at Kishon
jail. His third brother Osaimer (24 years) is being chased by the IOF. He
has two other brothers: Noor Edeen (21 years) and Ezz Edeen (14 years)
in addition to five sisters: Suhad (32 years), Saeda (28 years), Hiba (26
years), Shorok (19 years and Tasnim (17 years). His parents are alive and
they take care of the family.

          Testimony given by Om Loay, Mohammad’s mother
              on her visit to her injured son in the hospital

And her account of the way she reacted to the news of her son's passing
away goes as follows "I was out of the house and while I was engaged in
collecting our olive harvest with my husband, sons and daughters, my son

Loay came over and told us that Mohamad had been wounded during the
events at Naqab jail. He added that the Red Cross Office contacted him to
inform that the Israeli authorities issued permission to his mother, wife
and mother-in-law to visit him at the hospital while his aged father was
not allowed to get permission.

 Upon arrival at the Red Cross Office in Tolkarim, Om Loay inquired
about her son's health condition but could not get a decisive answer from
any of the Red Cross staff except that they did not have precise
information and that all they knew was that he had been admitted to the
hospital for medication.

Mohammad’s mother, Om Loay, adds that when they arrived at Soroka
hospital in Beer Al Sabe'e, they asked the doctors about her son's health
condition and his injury, but again none of the doctors provided an
explanation and they were told that Mohamad was being medicated inside
his room and that they have half an hour to see him. They were allowed
to go in the room one by one to see him separately

Om Loay goes on to tell that they reached the room and she was the first
to go in. She reported that too many tubes were inserted into every part of
his naked body whereas his hands and feet enchained though he was
unconscious. Having approached him she touched his cold body and
asked the nurses to get her a cover. They did, however, though covered
with a blanket his body remained cold. It is then that she felt pain for
being certain that he would die. She conveyed her feeling to his wife".

Om Loay clarified that she could not control herself as she started to yell
and weep outside the room until a lady doctor came up and told her that it
was she who did the surgery to Mohamad and that his brain was exposed
to a terribly severe blow that rendered the brain incapable of any
response. However, she did not uncover the main cause behind this

When Mohamad's wife and mother-in-law had seen him the four fully
armed guards stationed inside the room and at the door asked us to leave
the hospital. I asked for permission to stay with him by myself but was
rejected, so we all went out of the hospital heading to Tolkarim.

Om Loay adds that "when we reached home in Saida at 12 midnight, the
news of Mohamad's death had been spread all over the village as all news
stations broadcasted the incident".

Om Loay concluded that "my heart is withered with grave pain. Just
shortly before Mohamad's death my son Loay was released from prison
after he had had paralysis as a result of the brutal interrogation by the
IOF. My son Asaimar is being chased by the IOF and I have not seen him
for a long time, and now Mohamad is leaving us for good. InshAllah we
will be blessed with Allah acceptance of his intercession".

Mrs. Al Ashqar appealed to the conscientious individuals all over the
world to pay attention to the ordeal of the Palestinian prisoners and their
families and to do something to free the prisoners from the oppressive
occupation jails. She added that "a grave injustice is being done to our
prisoners and their families due to the detention and torture which they
endure for long periods of time".

                    Testimony of Sati Al Ashqar
                   The murdered prisoner's father
  "The killing of my son Mohamad at Naqab detention facility is a
                       deliberate retaliation"

Mr. Sati Al Ashqar gave testimony that since May 1993 his house was
exposed to 25 raids by the IOF during most which the occupation soldiers
damaged the family's possessions and the house furniture.

During one of the repeated raids upon the family's house on 14/6/2007,
the IOF killed in the house yard Osaimer's young friends named
Mohamad Abdel Jabbar Tweer (23 years) from the neighbouring village
of Ateel who was mistaken for the wanted target.

season's whole olive harvest of the family (weighing two tons/ 2000 kgs).

The father of the stricken family added that "the region's occupation army
officer raided once his house with large military forces and said to him:
Abu Loay, you remain as you are, aren't you afraid? I swear I will turn

your whole life into total misery and will make all the inhabitants of
Saida hate you. The officer's words supported Mr. Sati's conclusion that
"the killing of my son Mohamad at Naqab detention facility was an act of
deliberate retaliation; otherwise why should my son Mohamad be the
victim among hundreds of prisoners? I have never heard of a prisoner
being killed by a shot in the head; moreover, what does the region's
officer mean?"

Sati Al Ashqar says that "we are as inexorable as hard rocks. It is our
destiny to endure the miseries of the occupation. The world states should
not continue to maintain their neutral stand towards the occupation just
like the spectators of a movie episode that has nothing to do with what is
going on there".

     Testimony given by Mr. Loay Sati Al Ashqar (the deceased
         prisoner's eldest brother) on the torture operations
                       that led to his paralysis

Loay tells the story of his detention and the terrible torture tactics
practiced against him by the Israeli interrogators: "I got married in 2004
and started my job in the aluminum industry in my village Saida,
Tolkarim province to provide for my new family. On 22 April 2005 at
two thirty before dawn the Israeli soldiers started to release bombs and
called the house dwellers to go out.

They covered my eyes and tied my hands with chains and took me in a
jeep to an Israeli jail where I was checked by an army doctor. He checked
my body and asked whether I had ever had any surgery, or taken
medications or suffered from diseases. They took me again in the jeep to
Kishon jail.

The jailer said: Yahoda, take over. He led me to the interrogation office
where my eye cover was taken and one interrogator called Maymoon said
to me: "good morning. I am in charge of your file. I asked: "which file?"
He answered: "your detention". He introduced the other interrogators to
me; they were eight.

They said: "We do not have plenty of time, Easter is approaching and we
should get done with all relevant issues in short time". I said: "what is it
you should get done with?" They answered: "you should make your full
confession". I replied: "I have nothing to confess. I got married, that's
all". They said: "we know all this nonsense. We mean security issues. Do
you have any plans to implement any terrorist operations on Easter?" I
said: "I do not understand what you are talking about". They answered:
"the suicider was visiting you". I asked: "which suicider?"

Two hours later they told me: "If you do not tell us everything we will
have to get the information through another way. Have you heard about
the military interrogation? You might get out from here with a bulleted or
paralyzed body". I was then transferred to the military interrogation. They
told me: "Here you will pray for your death, but we will not allow you the
chance. We will not let you die until you tell us everything. Give me the
jail uniform". I said: "if I should die I prefer to die wearing my own

They made me sit on a square armless chair with sharp an edge, which
was tied to the floor. They tied my legs to the chair legs with iron chains
and chained my hands behind my back. One interrogator sat in front of
me while the other sat behind me. The first interrogator said: "we shall
make you do some exercises that will help you endure the military
interrogation". The exercise was to bang me in the chest so that I was
made to lean backward. I pulled myself together to avoid bone fracture.
In one or two minutes I fell on the ground.

The interrogator behind me put his foot on my chest and pressed hard
while the first interrogator in front of me held my hands and pulled me
violently from behind the chair. They kept it on until I lost my
consciousness. My body heated up and I threw out my stomach stuff
which went out through my nose. They splashed water on my face to
bring me back to consciousness and repeated the same thing. They did it
15 to 20 times per hour.

Then they asked me to sit on my toes without leaning on my feet. I used
to stay in this position for 40 to 50 minutes and perhaps for one hour until
my feet swelled and turned blue. I was allowed then to stand up. They
chained my hands and pressed violently on the cuffs so that the iron
pierced into my hands. The traces are still on my hands.

Sometimes when the shackles key did not work due to pressing they cut
them with a big iron scissors that is used in construction works. Then they
prepared new shackles and repeated the same thing. My hands turned
blue, and they shivered as they removed the cuffs. The interrogator stood
on the table and pulled me with the shackles chain, and when I fell on the
floor they pulled me from the hair.

I cried and yelled and they responded by asserting that there was no way
to stop the acts before I had told them what they wanted to know. I told
them: "Tell me what you want. Say that I am in charge of a terrorist
operation on the Pentagon and I am willing to confess it, just tell me what
you want. I only want salvation from this damnation".

There were always four interrogators; two of them were altered every
four hours throughout the day and night. This is a truth. The new
interrogators chained me and started beating me all over my body. One of
them pressed fiercely on my testicles with his shoes. When they slapped
me I tried to move away to avoid the slap. The Major used to tell me:
"what are you doing? If you move backward I will smash your nose, and
if you move forward I will cut off your ear. Be strong and take it as a
sportsman because you are a soldier and warrior". They smashed one of
my teeth.

Al Ashqar made a pause as his face turned pale and sweaty. His father
wiped out his face with a wet towel. He continued: "Whenever I
remember I feel sick and dizzy even if I am alone". Silence spread over
the room and few minutes elapsed before Al Ashqar could come back to

AL Ashqar said: "I entered the detention facility on Friday morning. It
was the last daylight I had seen before the interrogation started. I was out
for the first time on the Monday evening or Tuesday morning. During
these long days I used to sit on the chair and was not allowed to go to
toilette "so as not to kill yourself", they explained. I urinated in my
clothes during these days and started to smell bad. I had not had any food
for four days because "food might harm your stomach and intestines, they
might burst in reaction to food pressure when we push you from the back.
You may drink half a cup of water mixed with salt". They served me with
this mixture whenever they humped my body and I used to throw out. I
asked: why water mixed with salt?? Get me water without salt!" They
answered: "no, this would prevent any harm to be done to your stomach

and intestines and would help avoid intestines adhesion". I used to drink
the salty water and throw out.

On Monday evening, they told me that five witnesses confessed that Loay
had sheltered a wanted activist. I told them that there was a well known
wanted activist named Loay Sadi whereas I am Loay Sati. Perhaps they
did not recognize the difference. One of the interrogators replied: "do you
mean that the Shabac officers are idiots? We make tight plans and every
thing goes on smoothly as we wish". I Said: "sue me for any charge you
wish to impute to me".

The interrogator said: "come on, let us make some exercise again". He
pushed me backwards and said: "I shall help you to become a chronicle in
the Palestinian history". He talked to me while my head was pointing
downwards. He pushed me with his foot and pressed hard on my chest. I
felt then a rupture inside my body and that some thing inside had
smashed and I fell unconscious. I came back to consciousness as they
splashed water on my face. He pushed me again and I fell unconscious
once more.

He said: "stand up!" My legs were cold and creepy. I said: "I can't". He
answered "you are now paralyzed. This is what we promised you and
what you wanted".

I found out that I got a wound in my back and I was bleeding because of
the sharp edge of the chair. Blood and urination over the past four days
made me smell so that the interrogator could not come close to me. He
asked: "why do you smell so bad?" I replied: "this is the kind of perfume
you offer to me".

The jailer took me to the bathroom and pushed my to the floor and said:
"go on, you have only two minutes to take bath". I looked at the faucet up
on the wall and could not reach it. I took off my pants and tried to take off
my underwear. I managed to take them off from the front but they stuck
to my back. As the two minutes had passed the jailer started to knock at
the door saying: "time is over", I said: "give me two more minutes, I
could not reach the faucet".

He came in and inquired: "What's this on your back?" I replied that I did
not know. He called the interrogator who asked: "What's wrong with you,
Loay?" I replied: "I don’t know what happened to my back. I can't take

off my underwear or reach the faucet". He told me then: "Come on, let's
finish this story and take you to the doctor".

Two jailers accompanied me to Rambam hospital in a vehicle belonging
to the Jails Authority. In the reception hall, I sat with my hands and feet
chained. A Russian doctor came over and asked questions about the pain
I felt. I answered that all my body pained because of the interrogation.
The Druze jailer ordered me to keep silent. The doctor laid me down and
pushed his finger in my anus. I asked: "What are you doing?" He
answered: "Checking if you have hemorrhoids". Again I said: "Why don't
you ask me before you check?", he answered: "I am a specialist". I asked
him: "What about the wound in my back?" He applied an ointment and
bandage on the wound and ten minutes later I was taken back to the
interrogation. Once more, I was chained to the square chair. The bandage
fell out and the wound started bleeding. This time they stopped the
military interrogation.

The story told by the Israeli General Security System (Shabac) about
       the interrogation, torture and trial of Loay Al Ashqar
                               June 2007

The commentary on the above details came from the Shabac which
informed that Loay Al Ashqar was detained for interrogation in April
2005 "following significant suspicions about his involvement in terrorism
including the possession of weapons and backing terrorist activists from
Islamic Jihad militia. He was as well charged with providing
accommodation to Sarhan Sarhan who implemented Kibbutz Metsar
operation and killed three Israelis.

The mentioned detainee was brought to court and was convicted within
the framework of allegation deal. He was sentenced into 14 month
imprisonment on execution and additional 12 months in enforcement of a
previous sentence on execution suspension. Accordingly, the total
imprisonment period amounted to 26 months on execution. He was also
sentenced into 28 month imprisonment on execution suspension.

He was subjected to interrogation in accordance with the pertinent rules
and regulations and under continuous supervision at all interrogation
stages. As the interrogation proceeded, the mentioned detainee filed
medical complaints that were considered by the competent medical
parties including the medical checkup he had at the hospital. It is worth
mentioning that he never reported grave medical complaints as mentioned
now in his present complaint.

All complaints on the interrogation process, including the one presented
by the General Commission for Resistance of Torture and Red Cross,
were transferred to the public prosecution which in turn gave instructions
to the officer in charge of such complaints to look into them. The
investigation of the complaints had not detected any contraventions
throughout the interrogation. Therefore, the officer in charge decided to
close down the interrogation file".

Al Ashqar was subjected to other interrogations for a period of two
months, this time without physical torture. They told him that his wife
was detained because of him which did not happen. He was subjected to
tests on the lie detector and was placed in the dungeon with informants
for two weeks. Finally, a bill of indictment including two points was
submitted against him. File pertaining to lawsuit No 2157/05: Providing
the means of hiding to a wanted terrorist and using a forged document,
which means that he was not something similar to a time bomb.
He was sentenced into 26 month imprisonment and was released a month

        The displacement of the third son Osaimer Al Ashqar

The recurrent raids, assaults and acts of sabotage undertaken by the IOF
against the family's house caused the disappearance of the youngest son
Osaimer who straggled away from his family because he did not want to
go through the agonizing experience of his two brothers. The family's
house is being frequently raided in search of Osaimer and his family is
being threatened of killing its son if he does not show up.

          The killing of Mohamad Tweer (Osaimer's friend)
                       in Al Ashqar's house yard

During one of the repeated raids on Al Ashqar's house which took place
on 14/6/2007, the IOF killed in the house yard Osaimer's young friends
named Mohamad Abdel Jabbar Tweer (23 years) from the neighbouring
village of Ateel mistaking him for their sought target.

                      Summary and Conclusions

    It is an absolute truth that every Palestinian prisoner had to be
     tormented with severe abuses during interrogation, continuous
     torture and oppression, night raids, gas splashes, beating with
     batons and rubber bullet shootings not to mention the punitive
     measures including isolation, penalties and deprivation from the
     family visit.
    There are eleven thousand and 500 Palestinians detained at about
     28 jails, custodies and interrogation facilities that are attached to
     the IOF whereas the number of Palestinians who are arrested every
     month is estimated by 500 citizens mostly youth and college
    The raid on the Naqab detention facility resulted in several
     casualties among the prisoners who had injuries in the head and
     chest besides the killing of Mohamad Sati Al Ashqar (23 years).
     This leads to the conclusion that the shooting aimed at killing the
    The IOF bears the responsibility of killing the prisoner Mohamad
     Sati Al Ashqar.
    The IOF is responsible for the raids on the prisoners' sections and
     injuring 250 of them and burning their tents and possessions.
    The Shabac interrogators bear the responsibility of torturing and
     causing paralysis to Loay Sati Al Ashqar. There is not one
     convincing reason that justifies taking for granted the Shabac's
     account that Loay had not been tortured and that torture was not the
     cause of paralysis.

    The occupational forces are responsible for damaging the family's
     house and possessions over a period of 14 years.

           Demands by Friends of Humanity International

The occupational authorities are demanded to:

   1- Form an international committee entrusted with the investigation in
      the crimes perpetrated against the Palestinian prisoners and
      conducts the trial of the officers and soldiers who caused the injury
      of the prisoners and the killing of Mohamad Al Ashqar at the desert
      Naqab detention facility.
   2- Indemnify the family, wife and son of Mohamad Sati Al Ashqar
      for his death.
   3- Provide proper medication and compensation to Mr. Loay Sati Al
      Ashqar for the grave harm (paralysis) resulting from the operations
      of interrogation and torture to which he had been exposed.
   4- Ensure competent doctors to check up the injured prisoners and
      provide the proper medication.
   5- Friends of Humanity International calls the Israeli occupational
      authorities represented by the Israeli Government, the Jails
      Authority and the Israeli army to stop their oppressive operations
      against the Palestinian prisoners at the Israeli jails and custodies.
   6- The Israeli authorities must dismiss the officers and those
      responsible for the raids and violent abuses of the prisoners' rights.
      The list includes: the director of the prison: Shlomo Cohen, the
      director of the castle of administrative detention: Dock Rodrizer,
      the intelligence director: Yusuf Khanfees; the security director:
      Hamami; the sections officers: Thabet and Halik and all those who
      took part in the raids.
   7- Friends of Humanity demands the International Red Cross to
      intensify the visits to the prisoners with the aim to provide
      protection to them as the occupation seeks to undermine them
      physically and psychologically.
   8- Friends of Humanity International calls the human rights
      organizations all over the world to accelerate their efforts towards
