The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs has strongly condemned the recent actions of Israel's National Security Minister, Itamar Ben Gvir, who visited the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem and stated that he prayed there. Saudi Arabia described these actions as 'provocative practices' that escalate tensions in the region and violate the longstanding arrangements governing the holy site. The Kingdom reiterated its call for the international community to intervene and halt such actions by Israeli officials, stressing that these practices undermine peace efforts and contravene international laws and norms. Saudi Arabia has consistently denounced what it sees as repeated violations against the sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque.
