CAIRO – 10 August 2019: The Arab League warned on Saturday that Israeli preparations to storm al Aqsa mosque pose a real threat to Islam's third holiest site.

The Saturday statement affirmed that such action necessitates firm international Arab and Muslim action to put an end to Israeli occupation's mounting threats.

Arab League’s Assistant Secretary General for Palestinian and Occupied Arab Lands Affairs Saeed Abu Ali pointed out to preparations by extremist Jewish settlers to raid al Aqsa mosque compound on Sunday, the first day of Al Adha feast, under the protection of Israeli police.

The Arab League strongly condemned on Thursday an Israeli decision to build 2,300 new settlement units in the occupied West Bank.

Abu Ali slammed Israel's continued aggression against the Palestinians under the eye of the US, considering this as a litmus test to the international community.

He underlined the Arab League's support for the Palestinians, urging international organizations to shoulder responsibility to prod Israel into halting its crimes.
