Saudi Arabia, Oman slam Israeli Knesset’s call to impose sovereignty over occupied West Bank

RAMALLAH, July 24, 2025 (WAFA) – The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia condemned a recent vote by the Israeli Knesset urging the Israeli government to impose sovereignty over the West Bank and Jordan Valley.

In a statement released on Thursday, the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs described this move a flagrant violation of international law and United Nations resolutions.

It also described the Knesset's call as provocative steps that undermines ongoing efforts to achieve peace through the two-state solution and confirm their insistence on sabotage and destruction.

The Ministry affirmed  the Kingdom’s firm rejection of all violations by the occupation against the Palestinian population and their rights, foremost among which is the right to self-determination.

It also called on the international community to take serious steps to implement UN resolutions that support the inherent right of the Palestinian people to live with dignity on their land within their independent state on the 1967 borders with Jerusalem as its capital.

The Sultanate of Oman also voiced its denunciation over the Israeli Knesset's call to impose Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank, descripting the move as a blatant challenge to international law and UN resolutions, and a deliberate undermining of prospects for peace in the Middle East, the Palestinian people's right to self-determination, and the two-state solution.
