The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia strongly condemned the Israeli occupation's decision to approve the construction of approximately 3,500 new settlement units in the occupied West Bank, the Foreign Ministry said.
The Kingdom also condemned the attempt to annex wide areas of the West Bank, including Al-Quds (Jerusalem), which violates all international resolutions, international human-rights law, and United Nations resolutions, and obstructs the opportunities for peace and stability in the region.
Additionally, the Kingdom reiterated the importance of ending the suffering and providing hope for the Palestinian people, enabling them to secure their rights to live safely, and establishing their Palestinian state on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital, in accordance with the Arab Peace Initiative and relevant international resolutions.
