Morocco has condemned the incursion by an Israeli minister into the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem.
Morocco “reiterates its total rejection of all unilateral actions aimed at undermining efforts to bring about peace,” the Moroccan Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
It called for maintaining the historical and legal status established in Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and avoiding all forms of escalation and provocation.
