MALAYSIA STRONGLY CONDEMNS THE INCURSION AND ATTACKS BY THE ISRAELI OCCUPATION FORCES AND SETTLERS IN AL-AQSA MOSQUE IN JERUSALEM

MALAYSIA STRONGLY CONDEMNS THE INCURSION AND ATTACKS BY THE

ISRAELI OCCUPATION FORCES AND SETTLERS IN

AL-AQSA MOSQUE IN JERUSALEM

 

 

Malaysia strongly condemns the incursion and attacks by the Israeli Occupation Forces and Israeli settlers against the Palestinian civilians

and worshipers in Al-Aqsa Mosque on 7 May 2021.

 

Such heinous acts must be strongly denounced, and the Israeli government be held responsible and accountable for the flagrant violation of

human rights and international law. Many Palestinians have been injured in the attacks. The targeted aggression against the worshippers

during prayers in the final days of Holy Ramadan in Al-Aqsa Mosque is indeed contemptuous to all Muslims and humanity.

 

Malaysia also strongly condemns all forced evictions of Palestinians from their homes, including those in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood of

East Jerusalem.

 

Malaysia calls upon the international community to act swiftly and decisively to respond to the latest Israeli aggressions

 

Malaysia continues to stand in strong solidarity with the people of Palestine in the wake of the Israeli aggressions. Malaysia reaffirms its

unwavering support for the Palestinians and their cause for achieving freedom from the Israeli illegal occupation, and realising their aspiration

for an independent State of Palestine based on the pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as their Capital.
