CAIRO, Egypt, July 2 (NNN-MENA) – The Arab League (AL), condemned in the strongest terms, Israel’s opening of a tunnel, running under a Palestinian village, in East Jerusalem, during an archaeological event organised by an Israeli settler-linked group, the AL said in a statement.
AL Assistant Secretary General, Saeed Abu Ali, warned against “the repercussions of Israel’s continued digging operations in the occupied Jerusalem.”
He added, the Israeli settlement practices represent a flagrant violation of international law.
The Al’s statement stressed “rejection for any Israeli attempts to change the identity of the old city of the occupied Jerusalem.”
