The Muslim World League (MWL) condemned on Friday the storming of the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque by an Israeli official amidst heavy Israeli security reinforcements.

In a statement by the General Secretariat, the MWL denounced these absurd practices that violate the sanctity of these places, which represent a dangerous violation of international laws and norms and provoke the feelings of Muslims worldwide.

It stressed the need for united efforts towards achieving a fair and comprehensive peace while ending any actions that hinder the chances of a solution in the occupied territories.

The MWL reiterated its unwavering support for all initiatives to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, which it said was one of the most urgent concerns in the international and Islamic community.

Bahrain’s King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa declared on Sunday that the state “will proceed firmly” in addressing the consequences of the US-Israeli war on Iran, including Tehran’s attacks on the Gulf.

As he received senior officials, King Hamad revealed that Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, has been assigned with implementing “comprehensive and decisive measures, including the introduction of programs to resolve any gaps that have been identified in the defense or economic sectors,” reported Bahrain’s state news agency BNA.

King Hamad directed the immediate launch “of the legal measures against those who have betrayed the nation or undermined its security and stability, alongside a review of cases relating to entitlement to Bahraini citizenship, with the appropriate legal procedures to be applied accordingly.”

“The situation remains sensitive and calls for steadfast adherence to national responsibility and the safeguarding of the homeland with no tolerance for negligence or dereliction of duty,” he warned.

“The nation deserves the utmost sacrifice,” he added, stressing that Bahrain “will remain committed to its positions advocating the resolution of crises through peaceful means and diplomatic efforts, in a manner that serves the interests of the peoples of the region and the world.”

King Hamad also expressed pride in the achievements of Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad in advancing government work and driving further development across various sectors.
