OIC says Somaliland embassy in occupied Jerusalem is illegal The Organization of Islamic Cooperation has condemned the opening of an embassy by the self-declared state of “Somaliland” in occupied Jerusalem, calling the move illegal. The OIC’s General Secretariat said the step amounted to a flagrant violation of the United Nations Charter and relevant UN resolutions. It stressed that Israel, as the occupying power, has no sovereignty over occupied Jerusalem and said any measures aimed at changing the city’s political, legal or demographic status are null and void under international law.
