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.

Fifty-four Saudi relief trucks crossed the Nasib Border Crossing into Syria on Saturday as part of the Saudi humanitarian land bridge operated by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief).

The trucks carried essential supplies, including food, shelter, and medical aid, to assist the Syrian people in their time of need.

Sixty trucks have already reached Syria as part of the Saudi relief land bridge, while 13 relief planes have landed at Damascus International Airport as part of the Saudi relief air bridge.

The aid reflects Saudi Arabia's ongoing humanitarian and relief efforts through its humanitarian arm, KSrelief, to support those in need during crises around the world.
