The Muslim World League (MWL) condemned on Thursday the storming of the Al-Aqsa Mosque by an Israeli official, and the Knesset’s endorsement of a resolution rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
MWL Secretary-General Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdul Karim Al-Issa denounced in a statement Israel's hostile practices which he said constitute an assault on the sanctity of the holy sites and a dangerous defiance of international laws.
He added that Israel’s practices undermine the efforts exerted to achieve comprehensive peace for all and end the large-scale suffering in the Palestinian territories.
On Thursday, Israeli minister Itamar Ben-Gvir stormed into Jerusalem’s most sensitive holy site, threatening to disrupt Gaza cease fire talks.
Moreover, the Knesset passed a resolution rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state.

Saudi Arabia strongly condemned on Thursday Israel’s targeting of the Al-Razi United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) school in the Nuseirat refugee camp and its attack on the Attar area in Khan Younis in Gaza.

In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the attacks were part of the Israeli war machine's series of violations against defenseless civilians.

The Kingdom reiterated its firm rejection of the ongoing Israeli genocidal crimes, calling for an immediate ceasefire, ensuring the protection of civilians, humanitarian facilities, and those working in them.

“The Kingdom holds the Israeli forces fully responsible for their continued breach of all international humanitarian and legal norms,” said the statement.

“Furthermore, the Kingdom emphasized the legal, humanitarian, and moral responsibility placed on the international community to activate mechanisms of international accountability and put an end to these ongoing violations of international law and legitimate resolutions by Israeli forces.”

Saudi Arabia warned that “the persistent failure to take these measures not only reflects the weakness and impotence of international institutions but could also lead to further consequences, undermining the foundations and credibility of international legitimacy, as well as our ability to safeguard regional and global security and stability in the future.”
