Saudi Arabia strongly condemned on Monday Israeli forces for bombing of houses in Beit Lahia, in the northern Gaza Strip, and a settler incursion into Al-Aqsa Mosque courtyards in Jerusalem.

A Foreign Ministry statement said the Kingdom reiterated its denunciation of the continued flagrant violations of international law and international humanitarian law by Israeli forces.

It called on the international community, particularly permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, to hold Israeli forces accountable for their ongoing violations of Muslim holy sites and against innocent civilians in the State of Palestine, demanding an immediate ceasefire.

Saudi Interior Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Saud reaffirmed the Kingdom’s commitment to strengthening security coordination and cooperation among Gulf nations.
Speaking at the 41st GCC interior ministers’ meeting in Qatar on Wednesday, he emphasized the importance of protecting the region’s prosperity and ensuring a brighter future.
The meeting, chaired by Qatar’s Interior Minister Sheikh Khalifa bin Hamad, focused on enhancing joint security efforts and addressing key issues on the agenda.
Prince Abdulaziz warned of rising security challenges, including cybercrime, drug trafficking, and cross-border organized crime, during the GCC interior ministers’ meeting in Qatar.
He noted that advanced technologies are making it easier for criminal networks to smuggle weapons and fuel terrorism and extremism, especially in unstable regions.
The minister called for stronger collaboration, better strategies, and capacity-building to tackle these threats.
He also said that the GCC interior ministers’ meeting strengthens joint security efforts to tackle new challenges, supporting regional stability and development.
In a post on X, Prince Abdulaziz affirmed Saudi Arabia’s commitment to boosting communication, coordination, and integration among Gulf nations, particularly in security, to protect progress and ensure a brighter future.
