Thursday 13-April-2017

The Jordanian government condemned the massive incursion of Israeli settlers into the plazas of al-Aqsa Mosque under the protection of Israeli police.

Dr. Mohammad Al Momani Jordanian Minister of State for Media Affairs and Communications and Jordan Government Spokesman said in a statement on Thursday “We strongly refuse such practices which desecrate the sanctity of the holy site and provokes Muslims all over the world”. He asked the Israeli authorities to bring such actions to an immediate end.

The Jordanian official called on the international community to shoulder their responsibilities toward the issue of East Jerusalem in accordance with the international and humanitarian laws.

Al-Aqsa Mosque has been witnessing massive incursions since Wednesday morning by settlers including the two notorious extremists: Moshe Feiglin and Yehudah Etzion who keep calling for the establishment of the “Jewish Temple” on the ruins of al-Aqsa Mosque.
