Cairo: The Arab League has condemned Israel's closure of Al-Aqsa Mosque to worshippers, notably during the month of Ramadan, saying it has no right to take any measures preventing Muslims from worshipping there.

According to TRTworld.com, in a statement on Sunday, the regional bloc said the move constitutes a blatant violation of international law and could lead to serious repercussions for regional and international peace and security.

The Arab League also called on the international community to pressure Israel to halt illegal actions at Jerusalem's holy sites and respect freedom of worship. The statement emphasized the need for international intervention to ensure that all parties abide by international norms and agreements regarding religious freedom.

The statement came as Israel has kept Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem closed since the start of the US-Israeli war on Iran on February 28. During this period, only about 50 worshippers have been allowed to pray at the Ibrahimi Mosque in the occupied West Bank, further exacerbating tensions in the region.
