The resolution, passed with 22 countries on Tuesday, describes Israel as an “occupying power” and rejects its sovereignty claims over all of Jerusalem al-Quds.
"Any action taken by Israel, the occupying power, to impose its laws, jurisdiction and administration on the city of Jerusalem (al-Quds) are illegal and therefore null and void and have no validity whatsoever," based on it.
The resolution also describes as null and void any decision by the Israeli parliament, its supreme court, or any other Israeli authority that pertains to Jerusalem al-Quds.
The measure also slams Israel’s excavations in East Jerusalem al-Quds and the Old City.
Last year, UNESCO approved a motion that endorsed the right of Palestinians to the al-Aqsa Mosque compound and slammed Israeli provocations around the holy site.
The Tel Aviv regime has tried to change the demographic makeup of Jerusalem al-Quds over the past decades by constructing settlements, destroying historical sites, and expelling the local Palestinian population.
Palestinians say the Israeli measures are aimed at paving the way for the Judaization of the city.
In December 2016, the UN Security Council adopted a historic resolution that condemned Israeli settlement activities as a “flagrant violation of international law.”
Palestinians are seeking to create an independent state in the territories of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem al-Quds and the besieged Gaza Strip, with East al-Quds as the capital.
It is worthy to mention that Imam Khomeini, the late founder of the Islamic Republic through his speeches and historic messages exposed crimes being committed by the Israeli regime.
Imam Khomeini had also recommended the Iranian government and all Muslim countries to undertake serious efforts in order to highlight the Palestinian issue at international forums and on international arenas.
