The violent reaction of Arab countries to the visit of the Israeli security minister to the Al-Aqsa mosque is said to have dealt a blow to Prime Minister Netanyahu. 

According to Arab News, Saudi Arabia, criticizing the visit of Israeli Minister Atamar Ben Guerr on January 3, has emphasized the need to maintain the status of the third holiest country in Islam. 

The United Arab Emirates, along with China, have called a United Nations Security Council meeting to discuss Israel's move against Al-Aqsa after Prime Minister Netanyahu's planned visit to the United Arab Emirates was canceled.

Prime Minister Netanyahu visited the United Arab Emirates on January 8. 

The Israeli prime minister has also tried to apologize in the ongoing statement, saying he respects the current status of Al-Aqsa Mosque and has no intention of changing it. 

However, Israeli Minister of National Security Atamar Ben Gower's stance is unfriendly to Arabs, and in the past he has been convicted by Israeli courts of terrorism against Palestinians.

Israel is trying to disrupt the Security Council meeting scheduled for Thursday. Roni Shaked, a researcher at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, told Arab News that Al-Aqsa Mosque's sensitivity towards Arabs and Muslims has not been proven. Netanyahu failed. 

He said Netanyahu was impressed by the strong reaction from Arab and Muslim countries, as well as the European Union and the United States, which said any breach could spark widespread anger and instability. .
