The Organization of Islamic Cooperation will hold an exceptional meeting of the Open-ended Executive Committee at the level of permanent delegates at the headquarters of the General Secretariat in Jeddah next Monday; Discuss the escalation of Israeli violations of the sacred Al-Aqsa Mosque at the request of the Republic of Indonesia.
This meeting comes in light of the escalation of daily Israeli attacks on the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, as it closed its gates, stormed it with groups of extremist settlers and Israeli occupying forces, and attacked daily worshipers inside it, resulting in the injury and arrest of hundreds of them.
His Excellency Hussein Ibrahim Taha, Secretary General of the Organization, held contacts and consultations with several international actors, during which he expressed the organization’s rejection and condemnation of the Israeli occupation’s attempts to impose a temporal and spatial separation of the blessed Al-Aqsa Al-Mosque, calling on these parties and the international community to take urgent measures to put an end to Israel’s violations of the holy places. He stressed the need to preserve the historical and legal status quo at the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, as it is a place of worship exclusively for Muslims.
