Statement on the Al-Aqsa Mosque Incident

02 October 2015 Recognizing the importance of the area of Al-Aqsa Mosque to Islamic, Christian, and Jewish faiths, the Philippines urges all parties to act responsibly and exercise maximum restraint to prevent the situation from worsening. Any escalation in the tension over this Holy Site would be counterproductive to the search for a lasting peace in the area and the region. END
