Saudi Crown Prince and Prime Minister Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz called on the international community to take all measures to immediately stop the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip and ensure the protection of the lives of the Palestinian civilians.

He made the call while speaking at the annual Hajj reception ceremony at Mina Palace yesterday.

“Heinous crimes are being perpetrated against our brothers in the Gaza Strip while we are on the blessed Eid Al Adha.

We emphasize the necessity of immediately stopping this aggression and we appeal the international community to take all measures to ensure the protection of lives in Gaza,” he said.

The Crown Prince also stressed the importance of implementing the recent resolutions adopted by the United Nations Security Council for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

“Saudi Arabia renews its call to the international community to recognize the independent State of Palestine along the boarders of 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital,” he said.
