In the current context, the incident at Al-Aqsa Mosque has prompted a firm response from Egypt, which strongly condemns the Israeli Minister of National Security’s intrusion into Al-Aqsa, under the protection of the Israeli occupation forces. This provocative action is categorically rejected, as it is seen as a flagrant violation of the historical and legal status of Al-Aqsa Mosque. The deplorable actions reported in this incident demonstrate contempt for and provocation of the feelings of Muslims worldwide.
Egypt warns against these extremist acts that only add fuel to the fire and calls on Israel to fulfill its obligations as an occupying power. It is imperative to preserve the status of Al-Aqsa Mosque as a place of worship exclusively for Muslims. The call for the international community, and in particular the United Nations Security Council, to take decisive action to prevent such actions and to stop violations that undermine the opportunities for peaceful coexistence is crucial.
Egypt reaffirms the need to achieve a just, lasting and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian conflict, guaranteeing the establishment of an independent Palestinian State along the borders of 4 June 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital, and ensuring the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people.
As a spectator of this delicate situation, it is essential to recognize the importance of preserving holy sites and respecting the rights of different religious groups. Such incidents only increase tensions and undermine peace efforts in an already fragile region.
It is essential that all stakeholders actively engage in serious and sincere negotiations in order to achieve a lasting and mutually beneficial peace for all communities concerned. Egypt, through its firm stance and clear condemnation, demonstrates its commitment to preserving peace and justice in the region.
In conclusion, the situation at Al-Aqsa Mosque highlights the urgency of finding peaceful and lasting solutions to the conflicts that persist in the Middle East. International cooperation and respect for the rights of all are key elements in achieving genuine and lasting peace in the region.
