It underlined Saudi Arabia's continued leadership of the Arab coalition that is aiming to restore legitimacy in Yemen.

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) condemned on Monday the ongoing Israeli colonial practices, particularly the confiscation of thousands of dunums of Palestinian land and archeological sites.
Israel has recently seized archaeological sites in the village of Sebastia, in the Nablus governorate.
The OIC emphasized that Israel’s actions are part of its destructive policy against hundreds of archaeological, historical, and scientific sites, as well as places of worship in Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including the occupied city of Jerusalem, the Saudi Press Agency said.
The OIC stressed that these actions aim to erase, plunder and distort the cultural and civilizational heritage of the Palestinian people, in clear defiance of international law, the Geneva Convention, relevant UN resolutions, and the Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict and its protocols.
The organization urged the international community, especially the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), to take immediate action to safeguard the tangible and intangible cultural assets in the occupied Palestinian territory.
