Qatar condemns continued settler incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque

Doha: The Qatari government has strongly condemned recent settler incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque, stating that such actions are a clear breach of international and humanitarian law and deeply distressing to the Muslim world. A foreign ministry statement highlighted that Al-Aqsa is a sacred site reserved for Muslims alone and that any unilateral actions aiming to alter Jerusalem's status are unlawful.

The ministry cautioned that ongoing violations could incite more conflict and impede the pursuit of peace in the region. It urged the global community to press Israel to cease its aggressions against Palestinians and their revered sites, while respecting existing international resolutions. Qatar reiterated its unyielding support for Palestinians and the necessity to dismantle the occupation, allowing the Palestinians to claim their rights, including the establishment of an independent state with East Jerusalem as its capital.
