TEL AVIV, 10 May 2021, (TON): Israel is instigating the Muslim world by passage of Annual Jerusalem Day parade through Occupied Jerusalem's Old City. However, Palestinian rejected any such attempt and vowed to react strongly. Last minute agreement was acceptable to the Palestinian in which 700 Jews will be allowed to form a human chain, with two meters between links, around many of the Old City gates.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday that authorities “will not allow any extremists to destabilize the calm," after several days of clashes between Palestinian protesters and Israel police outside the Old City of Jerusalem.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said last week that he hold Israel responsible for the dangerous developments and sinful attacks taking place in the holy city. He called on the United Nations Security Council to hold an urgent session on prevailing situation. Saudi Arabia's Foreign Ministry rejected Israeli plans to evacuate Palestinian households from Jerusalem and called for the reinstatement of the pre-1967 borders. Jordan has termed Israeli moves as "dangerous provocations." Sudan termed Israeli measures in Jerusalem against Palestinians as "repression and coercive action".

Some of the Arab countries including UAE last year agreed to normalize relations with Israel but present provocations has led Muslim world to announce boycott with all the countries which mains diplomatic relations with Israel.
