The foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the UAE, Qatar, Indonesia, Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey on Tuesday strongly condemned the “continued incursions by extremist Israeli settlers” into the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound “under the protection of Israeli forces, as well as the raising of Israeli flags within its courtyards,” according to a statement shared by the Saudi foreign ministry.

The ministers said such actions constitute a flagrant violation of international law, relevant UN resolutions, and the historical and legal status quo governing the holy sites in occupied East Jerusalem.
