Kuwait strongly condemns and rejects the Israeli occupation's plans to transfer the administrative powers of the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron from the Palestinian Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs to the so-called Jewish religious council in the Kiryat Arba settlement, the Foreign Ministry said in a on Friday.
This step is a flagrant violation of international law and provocation to Muslims around the world, the ministry said, stressing Kuwait's categorical rejection of such unilateral measures that affect the current legal and historic status of religious sanctities in the occupied Palestinian territories.
Kuwait called on the international community and the UN Security Council to bear their legal and moral responsibilities and deter such practices that underestimate international efforts aiming to achieve an inclusive and just peace, the ministry said in the statement.
