Jeddah– Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Hissein Brahim Taha in a telephone call today with Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyadh Al-Maliki discussed the continuous Israeli procedures against Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The secretary general stressed OIC’s solidarity with Palestinians and its absolute support to their legitimate rights in Jerusalem and sovereignty in the city, which is considered the capital of Palestine, stressing that these Israeli practices represent a flagrant violation to the international law and relevant UN resolutions.

For his part, Al-Maliki acquainted Taha with the dangerous conditions resulting from the escalation of daily break-ins and raids of extremist settlers, under the protection of Israeli forces, to Al-Aqsa Mosque and worshippers and their attempts to impose temporal and spatial division of Al-Aqsa Mosque, calling for an effective Islamic mobilization at all political, diplomatic and legal levels to garner the widest international pressure on Israel, the occupying force, to put an end to its attacks on Jerusalem and its holy sites.
