Saudi Arabia strongly condemned on Tuesday Israeli officials and settlers for storming the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound.

The Foreign Ministry slammed the blatant and repeated violations committed at the holy site by Israeli officials and settlers.

It underscored the importance of respecting religious sanctities, reiterating the Kingdom's warning of the repercussions of the ongoing violations of international law and the historical status of the city of Jerusalem.

Such violations could provoke millions of Muslims around the world, particularly in light of current war on Gaza and the plight of the Palestinian people.

The Kingdom reiterated its call for the international community to assume its responsibility in halting the ongoing Israeli violations of international law and relevant international resolutions.
