According to media reports, during the two-day visit of Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lipid to the United Arab Emirates, there was talk about handing over the management of Al-Aqsa Mosque to the Saudi government.
According to the reports, Israel has agreed to form a council to manage the Al-Aqsa Mosque, under which the Saudi government will now play its part in the management of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.
