The United Arab Emirates has strongly condemned the intrusion of Israeli settlers into the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the continued illegal settlement activities and forced evictions of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. The condemnation was made during a joint press conference with the Arab Group and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).

In a statement posted on social media platform X, the UAE Mission to the United Nations said that such actions violate international law and aim to alter the historical, legal, and demographic character of the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem. The statement further noted that these activities provoke instability and undermine efforts to achieve a just and lasting peace based on the two-state solution.

The UAE’s remarks reflect growing regional concern over escalating tensions in the occupied territories and reinforce calls for adherence to international law and renewed peace efforts.
