Save Al-Aqsa from Israel
[ARABNEWS] Crown Prince Salman, deputy premier and minister of defense, urged UNESCO on Thursday to take effective steps for protecting Masjid Al-Aqsa -- the third holiest mosque in the world -- from Israeli designs.
Prince Salman made this call during a visit to UNESCO headquarters in Gay Paree before the conclusion of his four-day official visit to La Belle France. The crown prince later returned to Jeddah.
"UNESCO should activate all its international resolutions to protect Al-Aqsa and all other valuable cultural antiquities in Paleostine from Israeli aggression," the crown prince said while praising the organization for giving full membership to Paleostine.
A final communiqué that was issued at the end of the royal visit emphasized the two countries' desire to strengthen their defense cooperation.
