Director of the holy al-Aqsa Mosque Sheikh Omar al-Kiswani warned of new Israeli schemes and break-in tactics pursued at the site in an attempt to impose a new fait accompli.
Speaking in an interview with PIC Sheikh Omar al-Kiswani said that by the end of 2016 and the start of 2017 Israeli Haredim gangs commonly known as the “blacks” in reference to their black clothes and dogmatic doctrines have been allowed to break into the al-Aqsa Mosque and perform their Talmudic rituals in the presence of Israeli cops.
“In the wake of the latest UNESCO resolution denying Israeli ties to Muslims’ the holy al-Aqsa Mosque the Israeli intelligence and police opted for other tactics to hold sway over the site and violate Muslims’ freedom of worship” noted al-Kiswani.
He added that in the wake of UNESCO bid new Israeli settler gangs and fanatic hordes including the Haredims have forced their way into the site and carried out sacrilegious rituals most notably wailing dress tearing and barefoot break-ins.
Al-Kiswani said he believes that an Israeli resolution is being currently weaved against the al-Aqsa Mosque in response to the UNESCO resolution.
“Israeli break-ins reached a peak on Sunday as 35 settlers stormed the site in the morning shift while 20 Israelis mostly dressed in black attire broke into the al-Aqsa place of worship in the afternoon shift” al-Kiswani warned.
He added that the Israeli settlers burst into hysterics and carried out rituals violating the sanctity of the al-Aqsa Mosque.
Quoting al-Aqsa supervision staff al-Kiswani said: “A horde of 15 Israeli settlers have been storming the mosque on a daily basis and performing the same rituals as if they were carrying out an official mission dictated by their leaders.”
Al-Kiswani further spoke out against the crackdowns abductions and tough restrictions imposed by the Israeli police against the Muslim worshipers at the entrance gates to the al-Aqsa Mosque.
The al-Aqsa Mosque is the third holiest site in Islam. It is a highly sacred place for the adherents of the Islamic faith across the occupied Palestinian territories and across the other parts of the globe.
