Israeli police overnight banned a female Palestinian instructor and two men from entering Jerusalem’s al-Aqsa Mosque for varying periods.
Palestinian teacher Khadija Khweis received a six-month ban from al-Aqsa Mosque to be put into effect starting August 22 2019.
The Israeli police also summoned Palestinian citizen Nidhal al-Zugheir to questioning at the Qishleh detention center in Jerusalem’s Old City before they updated him on the ban.
Al-Zugheir’s three brothers have also just received similar bans for periods ranging from two weeks to six months.
At the same time the Israeli occupation authorities released the Muslim guard at al-Aqsa Mosque Ali Hamad on conditions of a five-day ban from al-Aqsa. Hamad was arrested on his way out of the site through the Asbat Gate.
