Riyadh denies holding a meeting between the Saudi Minister of Commerce and an Israeli official. The Saudi comment came in response to a video clip circulating on social media platforms about Trade Minister Majid bin Abdullah Al-Qasabi meeting with an Israeli occupation official.

A person approached the Saudi minister and then introduced himself as the Minister of Economy in the Israeli occupation government without prior knowledge of the person's identity. The source affirmed "the Kingdom's firm position on the Palestinian issue, and its support for the steadfastness of the Palestinian people against the Israeli aggression"
