The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed the Kingdom's “rejection and condemnation in the strongest terms” an Israeli official’s storming of Al-Aqsa Holy Mosque and the Knesset's adoption of a resolution rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian State.

“The Kingdom affirmed that these continued hostile practices towards Islamic sanctities and international resolutions and laws reflect the aggressive approach of the Israeli occupation authorities,” the Ministry said in a statement.

It stressed that “these practices hinder any progress aimed at sparing the blood of innocent people and achieving a just and comprehensive peace.”
