Kuwait Condemns and Denounces Incursion of Israeli Occupation Minister and Settlers into Al-Aqsa Mosque

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed Kuwait’s strong condemnation and denunciation of the incursion by an Israeli occupation government minister and groups of extremist settlers into the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, in a blatant violation of international law and an affront to Muslim sentiments. In a statement, the Ministry reaffirmed Kuwait’s firm rejection of these repeated violations and any attempts to impose a new reality at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, emphasizing the necessity of respecting its existing historical and legal status and safeguarding the sanctity of religious sites in Jerusalem. It called on the international community to assume its responsibilities to put an end to these violations, reiterating Kuwait’s steadfast position supporting the rights of the fraternal Palestinian people, foremost among them their right to establish their independent state within the June 4, 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
