The King of Saudi Arabia condemned the Zionist invasion of Gaza in a telephone conversation with the head of the Palestinian Authority on Friday evening, after 12 days of the Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip.
Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz spoke by telephone with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Friday evening.
Saudi Arabia’s King Salman has assured Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas of the Kingdom’s support for the Palestinian cause and people, according to a readout of their phone call on Friday.
According to an official statement, King Salman has also instructed Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Fahran to continue efforts at international forums to support the Palestinian position.
In this conversation, the Saudi king condemned the Israeli invasion of Jerusalem and the attack on Gaza.
In a telephone conversation with the head of the Palestinian Authority, he stressed the need to continue efforts to stop the Zionist aggression against the Palestinians.
Clashes between Palestinian resistance groups and the Zionist regime began on Monday, May 10, after the end of the resistance strike in Tel Aviv over the need to end the attacks in Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque.
During the clashes, which lasted until Friday morning, the Zionist regime, in its attacks on residential areas, killed Palestinian women and children, and in response to these crimes, Palestinian resistance groups targeted the regime’s positions. They fired rockets, and the Iron Dome system failed to intercept many of them.
On Thursday evening, after some news sources reported the possibility of a fire, the Zionist regime’s security cabinet officially agreed to a ceasefire and a ceasefire mediated by Egypt.
An hour later, Palestinian resistance groups announced in separate statements that they would commit to the ceasefire until Tel Aviv adhered to it.
