Al-Aqsa Mosque Preacher Sheikh Mohammad Hussein said supporting hunger striking prisoners in Israeli jails is a duty at all levels.
During his Friday sermon which was attended by 40000 Palestinians Sheikh Hussein said backing up striking detainees is a national and humanitarian responsibility on Palestinians as well as the nations of Arabs and Muslims.
Israeli forces erected military checkpoints at the gates and roads of Occupied Jerusalem as well as the gates of al-Aqsa Mosque. Israeli police checked the IDs of Muslim worshipers before allowing them access to the holy shrine.
