Dr. Khoja stated that the Cabinet condemned plans of the Israeli
occupation authorities aiming at deporting 1500 Palestinian citizens
in Al Bustan district, in the city of Al-Quds, from their houses. The
Cabinet expressed the Kingdom's rejection of these dangerous measures
that represents a breach of the Geneva Convention concerning the
protection of civilians, stressing that continuation of construction
of settlements is a great obstacle for the efforts to achieve peace
in the Middle East. The Cabinet called on the international community
to immediately interfere to stop these acts that violate the most
basic human rights, represent defiance to the will of the
international community and contradict the international laws and
norms.

The minister said that then, the Cabinet reviewed the cultural
activity that the Kingdom will witness during the coming two days:
the National Festival for Heritage and Culture in Al-Janadriyah and
Riyadh International Book Fair. The Cabinet stressed that these
cultural activities reflect the country's keenness and interest in
cultural and scientific interaction and its prominent status as an
Arab, Islamic and international cultural hub.
