The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) strongly condemns the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque by the extremist Israeli Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, under the protection of the Israeli occupation forces, considering it an extension of the violations and illegal plans aimed at changing the historical and legal status of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The OIC General Secretariat reaffirms that Israel, the occupying power, has no sovereignty over the occupied city of Al-Quds (Jerusalem) and its Islamic and Christian holy sites, and that the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, with its entire area of 144 dunums, is a place of worship exclusively for Muslims.
The General Secretariat also calls on the international community to shoulder its responsibilities and compel Israel, the occupying power, to cease all its ongoing crimes and violations throughout the Palestinian territory, including the occupied city of Al-Quds (Jerusalem).
