The Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned the "recent escalation" by Israel in the occupied Palestinian territories, including the “aggressive actions” in Jenin earlier Tuesday, which led to deaths and injuries.

The Ministry reaffirmed “Saudi Arabia's unequivocal rejection of the grave violations committed by the Israeli occupation forces.”

It extended its heartfelt condolences and sympathy to the families of the victims, as well as to the government and people of Palestine, while also wishing a speedy recovery for the injured.
