He criticized all illegal Israeli settlement policies in the occupied Palestinian territory and denounced the support and protection of violations and acts of violence committed by settlers against the Palestinian people and their property. The statement highlighted that these actions are part of an ongoing Israeli approach that contravenes international laws and resolutions, undermining peace efforts.Sheikh Dr. Al-Issa emphasized the urgent need for the international community to fulfill its legal and moral responsibilities by stopping all acts of violence, violations, settlement policies, and measures that alter the geographic and demographic character of the occupied Palestinian territory. He acknowledged the statement made by the foreign ministers of several nations, including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the UAE, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, Qatar, and Egypt.
