Saudi Arabia Ministry of Foreign Affairs said it is following with great concern the Israeli forces storming of the courtyards of al-Aqsa Mosque, assaulting worshipers, and arresting a number of Palestinian citizens.
“The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia condemns this blatant storming and expresses its rejection of these practices that undermine peace efforts and contradict international principles in respect of religious sanctities, reaffirming its firm position in supporting all efforts aimed at ending the occupation and reaching a just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian cause,” the statement added.
Israeli police attacked dozens of worshipers inside the mosque, injuring civilians with tear gas, rubber-tipped bullets and baton.
