This is in line with the directives of Custodian of the Two
Holy Mosques King Salman and in continuation of the efforts made by Crown
Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) in coordination with
leaders of other Arab and Islamic countries. The summit will be held as an
extension of the joint Arab-Islamic summit held in Riyadh on November 11, 2023.
Saudi Arabia reaffirmed its condemnation and denunciation of
the crimes and violations that are being perpetrated by the Israeli occupation
authorities against the Palestinian people, apart from the continuing Israeli
attacks and violations against the people of Lebanon.
This is in light of the Kingdom's follow-up of the current
developments in the region, as well as the continued sinful Israeli aggression
on the occupied Palestinian territories, and its expansion to include the
Lebanese Republic in an attempt to undermine its sovereignty and territorial
integrity, and the serious repercussions of this aggression on the security and
stability of the region, the Saudi Press Agency said in a statement.
