Saudi Arabia blasts Israel for advancing plans for another 3,500 settlement homes in the West Bank earlier today.
Riyadh’s foreign ministry describes the move as an attempt to “Judaize large parts of the West Bank, including Jerusalem, in contravention of all international resolutions, international human rights law and the United Nations Charter, and contradicting efforts to achieve peace and stability in the region.”
The kingdom reiterates its call for a two-state solution on the pre-1967 lines.
