Ahram Online quoted the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs as saying that the storming co-occurred with the Palestinian worshippers being barred from entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Egypt emphasised that these “irresponsible and provocative actions” violate international law and Jerusalem's historical and legal status.
"The frequent and consistent nature of these actions indicates that a systematic policy is being enforced," the statement read, stressing that the current situation requires urgent intervention to stop these practices.
Cairo called on the international community to play an active role in confronting the Israeli violations. It stressed that such Israeli acts aim to undermine efforts to reach a ceasefire in Gaza.
Egypt said it would press ahead with efforts to achieve a just, lasting, and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian cause, ensuring the establishment of an independent Palestinian state within the 4th June 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
