His Majesty King Abdullah on Sunday warned against damaging Islamic holy sites in occupied Jerusalem.

At a meeting with a delegation of Arab members of the Knesset, the King condemned Israeli attempts to demolish the road of the Magharebah Gate, adjacent to the Western Wall of the Aqsa Mosque.

His Majesty said Arab Israeli leaders play a key role in supporting efforts to revive the peace process.

King Abdullah added that Jordan was keen to enhance relations with the Arab Israeli leadership to serve the Palestinian cause.

The Jordanian Royal Committee for Jerusalem Affairs has recently issued a statement urging governments and organizations of the world to intervene immediately to stop the dangerous Israeli practices, including a plan by the Israeli government to remove a hill near the Magharebah Gate.
