JEDDAH — The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has expressed satisfaction that Palestinian worshippers were able to enter the compounds of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque after the Israeli occupation forces removed all electronic gates.
The OIC also saluted the resilience of the Palestinian people in the face of aggression, which made the Israeli government to submit to their will through steadfastness and cohesion under the leadership of President Mahmoud Abbas.
The OIC renewed its call to the international community to assume its responsibility for getting Israel to abide by the international resolutions, treaties and instruments that guarantee protection of the Islamic holy sites, especially that Al-Quds Al-Shareef is part of the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, and to which international law and the Geneva Conventions apply.
In addition, the UNESCO resolutions affirmed that the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque is an entirely Islamic holy site.
The OIC also stressed that the two-state solution and the establishment of the Palestinian State with Al-Quds Al-Shareef as its capital on the basis of international resolutions and the Arab peace initiative was the only way to achieve permanent peace and stability in the region.
The OIC further emphasized that it would continue to support the Palestinian people and confront any attempts to Judaize the holy city.
