Qatar Condemns Storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque Courtyards by Israeli Settlers

The State of Qatar strongly condemned the storming of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque courtyards by dozens of Israeli settlers, led by the Minister of National Security in the occupation government.

It deemed it a flagrant violation of international law and an act of provocation to the feelings of Muslims worldwide.

In a statement on Monday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs warned of the continuation of such violations against the Palestinian people and their Islamic and Christian sanctities, and the resulting expansion of the cycle of violence in the region.

It stressed that the international community should shoulder its moral and legal responsibility toward Jerusalem and its sanctities.

The Ministry reiterated the State of Qatar's unwavering position on the just of the Palestinian cause and the legitimate rights of the brotherly Palestinian people, including the full right to perform their religious rituals without restrictions, and establish their independent state on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
