Doha, Qatar has vehemently denounced the ongoing incursions by Israeli settlers into Al Aqsa Mosque, asserting that such actions constitute a blatant breach of international and humanitarian laws and a callous provocation to Muslims worldwide. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on Tuesday, asserting that Al Aqsa Mosque is a unique site of worship reserved exclusively for Muslims.
It emphasized that any unilateral actions aimed at changing the historical and legal status quo of Jerusalem, as well as its holy sites, are entirely invalid under international law.
The ministry cautioned that continued violations could exacerbate regional tensions and jeopardize ongoing efforts toward peace and stability. It reiterated its demand for the global community to take prompt action to compel Israel to cease its relentless violations against the Palestinian people and their revered sites, and to adhere to pertinent international resolutions.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs reaffirmed Qatar's steadfast support for the Palestinian struggle and the perseverance of the Palestinian people, centered on putting an end to the occupation and enabling the Palestinian people to exercise their fundamental rights, foremost among which is the establishment of an independent state on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
