UAE Strongly Condemns and Denounces Settlers’ Storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque and Raising of Israeli Flag Within Its Courtyards
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) emphasized the need to respect the historical and legal status quo of Al-Aqsa Mosque, ensure the protection of all holy sites, and uphold the custodial role of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in overseeing the endowments and managing the affairs of Al-Aqsa Mosque. The Ministry expressed the UAE's full solidarity and support for all measures implemented by Jordan to protect and preserve sites of religious significance.
The Ministry held the Israeli authorities responsible for halting these escalatory actions and called for the implementation of efforts to avoid exacerbating tensions and instability in the region, reaffirming the UAE's categorical rejection of all practices that violate resolutions on international legitimacy and signed agreements, and which threaten further escalation.
The Ministry called on the international community to intensify all regional and international efforts to find a political horizon that achieves a comprehensive peace based on the two-state solution, and that fulfills the aspirations of the brotherly Palestinian people to establish an independent sovereign Palestinian state, in accordance with international law.
