Doha, May 15 (QNA) – The State of Qatar condemned the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque compound by Israel’s extremist National Security Minister, as well as the provocative actions and violations committed by settlers under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, including restrictions on worshipers’ access to the mosque. In a statement issued on Friday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs described the incident as a blatant violation of international law and international humanitarian law, and an unacceptable provocation to the sentiments of millions of Muslims around the world. The ministry warned that such actions represent a dangerous attempt to alter the historical and legal status quo in occupied Jerusalem and its Islamic and Christian holy sites. It stressed that Al-Aqsa Mosque is a place of worship exclusively for Muslims, affirming that all unilateral measures aimed at changing the historical and legal status of Jerusalem and its holy sites are null and void under international law. It further warned that continued violations and provocations would fuel violence and instability in the region and undermine efforts to restore calm. The ministry renewed Qatar’s call on the international community to take urgent action to compel Israel, as the occupying power, to halt its ongoing violations against the Palestinian people and their holy sites and to comply with relevant international resolutions. It reiterated Qatar’s firm support for the Palestinian cause and the rights of the Palestinian people, including the establishment of an independent state on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
