On Wednesday, Saudi Arabia condemned the storming of the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque by Israeli officials and settlers under the protection of Israeli forces, renewing its strongest denunciation of the ongoing violations against the sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque.

According to a statement published by the official Saudi Press Agency (SPA), Saudi Arabia firmly rejects any actions that undermine the historical and legal status of Jerusalem and its holy sites. It called on the international community to hold the Israeli occupation authorities accountable for their serious and ongoing violations against Islamic holy sites and innocent civilians in the State of Palestine.
