Saudi Arabia condemned the visit of Israeli Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir to al-Aqsa mosque, calling it a provocation that exacerbates regional conflicts. Under a long-standing status quo, Jews may visit but not pray at the site. In separate incidents, the Israeli army conducted raids in southern Syria, seizing weapons and detaining suspected traffickers. Meanwhile, Israeli forces killed 23 Palestinians in Gaza during food distribution efforts, drawing reports of indiscriminate gunfire in crowded areas. The IDF maintains operations in Syria to thwart terrorist entrenchment.
