Meanwhile Haroun Nasreddin in charge of Hamas’s Jerusalem Office said that the Israeli settlers’ calls to break into the Al-Aqsa Mosque on Saturday and Sunday are desperate attempts to Judaize the Muslim holy site and impose Israeli ‘sovereignty’ over it as part of schemes to divide the compound temporally and spatially.

In a statement issued Friday he warned the “Temple Mount” groups against exploiting occasions to implement their malicious schemes aimed at rebuilding the alleged temple and impose a new status quo in the holy city.

He further called on the Palestinian people and the Arab and Muslim nations to face off such malignant plots protect the Al-Aqsa Mosque and ward off attempts to Judaize Jerusalem with all means possible.

He concluded by saying that the Israeli attempts to impose a temporal and spatial division at the Al-Aqsa Mosque are bound to fail.
