The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) issued a strong condemnation of the recent storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque by an extremist Israeli minister and settlers, denouncing it as a deliberate provocation and a violation of UN resolutions.

The OIC also condemned the escalating Israeli attacks on humanitarian, medical, and journalistic personnel in Gaza, citing the massacre at an UNRWA clinic in Jabalia camp, where 19 civilians, including nine children, were killed, and the execution of aid workers in Rafah, the Saudi Press Agency said on Thursday.
The OIC described Israel’s acts as war crimes demanding accountability under international law. It urged the UN Security Council to compel Israel to cease its violations of holy sites and its campaign of genocide, forced displacement, and ethnic cleansing against Palestinians.
