In another context, Al-Riyadh newspaper reported in its editorial that the hostile acts that happen in Palestine reflect the Israeli policy against the Palestinian since 1948 until today. Despite the fact that many Arabi countries have normalized relations with Israel, the Israeli policy and its aggressive behavior against the Palestinians did not change, the paper added. Israel has always practiced such hostile behavior towards the Islamic holy sites and occupied Palestinian lands, as the last of these hostile acts was forcibly seizing Palestinian properties and forcibly displacing them from their land, specifically the attacks against the residents of Sheikh Jarrah and Silwan neighborhoods of Al-Quds Al-Sharif, the newspaper concluded.
