The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) condemned roundly the Israeli occupation forces’ incursion into the sacred al-Aqsa mosque, blocking of its compound gates, and assault on worshippers inside al-Qibli mosque and in the al-Aqsa plaza, injuring as many as 152 worshippers and arresting hundreds others.

The OIC considered this dangerous escalation an affront to the feelings of the entire Muslim Ummah and a blatant violation of international resolutions and instruments.

The OIC held the Israeli occupation fully responsible for the fallout of such daily crimes and offenses against the Palestinian people, their territories and sanctuaries.

It also called on the international community, particularly the UN Security Council, to act for these constant violations to be brought to an end, while protecting the Palestinian people and their sacred places, and preventing the repetition of the Israeli attacks fueling religious clashes, extremism and instability in the region.
