The Ministry of Foreign Affairs declared in a statement on 9th May that Algeria condemns in the strongest terms the racist and extremist attacks in the occupied city of El-Quds against Palestinian civilians and their deprivation of religious freedom in El-Aqsa mosque.
The Foreign Ministry added that, in view of these serious and persisting violations committed by the Israeli occupation authorities against the defenceless Palestinian people, Algeria calls on the international community, in particular the UN Security Council, to act urgently to ensure the necessary protection for the Palestinian people and their sacred places and to put an end to these criminal acts and to the Israeli policy of occupation of the Palestinian territories.
