AHG/Res. 70(X) RESOLUTION ON THE CONTINUED OCCUPATION BY ISRAEL OF PART OF THE TERRITORY OF THE ARAB REPUBLIC OF EGYPT The OAU Assembly of Heads of State and Government meeting in its Tenth Ordinary Session in Addis Ababa from 27 – 28 May 1973, Having heard the statement of His Excellency Al Shafei Vice President of the Arab Republic of Egypt on the situation in the Middle East in general, and in particular on that resulting from the continued occupation of part of the territory of Egypt since the Israeli aggression of 5 June 1967, Recalling all OAU resolutions adopted in this respect and especially Resolution AHG/Res.67 (IX) of the Rabat Summit Conference, Reaffirming Resolution 2949 (XXVII) of the UN General Assembly passed in December 1972, Aware of the danger emanating from the deterioration of the situation in the North-East of Africa as a result of the continued aggression perpetrated against the territory of Egypt and other Arab territories – a danger which threatens the security, territorial integrity and unity of our continent, Noting with deep concern that despite the numerous resolutions of the OAU and UN, calling upon it to withdraw from all occupied African and Arab territories, Israel not only persists in refusing to implement these resolutions, but also continues to practice a policy with a view to creating in the said territories a state of fait accompli aimed at serving its expansionist designs, Deploring the systematic obstruction by Israel of all the efforts exerted to reach a peaceful solution to the problem at both the international and African levels,
