The Saudi Foreign Ministry condemned on Sunday the storming of the courtyard of Al-Aqsa Mosque by an Israeli official.  The Ministry affirmed that these systematic practices are a flagrant violation of all international norms, and a provocation of Muslims around the world. The Ministry holds the Israeli occupation forces fully responsible for the repercussions of the continuation of these abuses. Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir visited the flashpoint Al-Aqsa mosque compound Sunday, police said, a controversial move by the extreme-right politician amid heightened tensions in annexed east Jerusalem. “Minister Ben-Gvir visited the Temple Mount this morning. There was no incident during the visit,” police said in a statement, using the Jewish name for the holy site in the heart of the Old City. Posting a photo of himself at the compound on Telegram, Ben-Gvir said: “Jerusalem is our soul.”
