The illegitimate Jewish state has released a map of Greater Israel, which shows Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and Saudi Arabia as part of Israel. However, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, and Palestine have condemned and rejected the Israeli move. According to the Turkish news agency Anadolu, Israel’s official social media accounts have published a map claiming that parts of Palestine, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon are part of Israel. According to Arab News, Saudi Arabia has condemned and rejected the Israeli map, which shows the territories of Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon as part of the so-called Greater Israel. Saudi Arabia stressed that such extremist actions demonstrate Israel’s intentions to consolidate its occupation, continue to openly attack the sovereignty of states, and violate international laws and principles. The Saudi Foreign Ministry has urged the international community to play its role in preventing Israel’s expansionist ambitions against the countries and peoples of the region. The ministry has called on the international community to play its role in limiting the severity of the crises in the region. He stressed the need to respect the sovereignty of states and their borders.
Meanwhile, Palestinian and Jordanian officials have also condemned the Israeli map. Palestinian Authority spokesman Nabil Abu Rudeineh described the map shared by Israeli social media accounts this week as a clear violation of all international resolutions and laws. He said that Israeli occupation policies, illegal settler attacks and continuous attacks on the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound require an urgent international stance to prevent the Palestinian people from becoming victims of war and destruction. Abu Rudeineh urged the incoming US administration to stop all Israeli policies that undermine security and peace in the Middle East. The Jordanian Foreign Ministry called the Greater Israel map provocative and baseless, saying that the claim that it is a historical map of Israel is false. The ministry said that racist Israeli actions and comments can neither undermine Jordan’s sovereignty nor change the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people. The Jordanian ministry said that the publication of the map was sponsored by the far-right Israeli Finance Minister. The announcement was accompanied by racist statements by Basel Smotrich regarding the annexation of the occupied West Bank and the construction of illegal settlements in Gaza. According to Anadolu, the Qatari Foreign Ministry described the publication of the Israeli map as a clear violation of international resolutions and the provisions of international law. The UAE Foreign Ministry described the Israeli move as a deliberate attempt to expand the occupation and a blatant violation of international law.
