Al Azhar urges to invalidate US decision

CAIRO - 10 December 2017: Al Azhar urged all the countries around the world to implement and activate the principles and articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that called for preserving world peace and security.

In a press release on Sunday on the occasion of celebrating the Human Rights Day, Al Azhar said the day unfortunately coincides this year with the US decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

The US decision is stripping the Palestinians from their land and challenges Arabs and Muslims worldwide, the statement added.

Al Azhar also urged international organizations and world powers to work on invalidating the US decision concerning Jerusalem.
