Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem by the Israeli army, assaulting worshipers and arresting several on Wednesday.
In a statement, the ministry “expressed the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s condemnation and rejection of the blatant storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque’s compound", saying "these practices undermine peace efforts."
“Such actions violate international principles and norms regarding respect for religious sanctities,” the statement added.
It also reaffirmed supporting all efforts aimed at ending the occupation and reaching a just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian cause.
