OCCUPIED JERUSALEM (PIC)– Head of the Islamic Higher Committee Sheikh Ekrema Sabri warned of the outbreak of a third intifada in defence of occupied Jerusalem against Zionist campaigns of “transfer” and Judaization.
He said in a statement to the UAE-based al-Khalij newspaper on Friday that people’s uprisings against oppression are spontaneous and that the Israeli occupation practices against the Palestinian people in general and occupied Jerusalem in particular are pushing towards explosion.
He also pointed out that there is and evil Zionist plan against occupied Jerusalem which is being implemented in stages as conditions allow explaining that the attempts to uproot and displace Palestinian residents of Jerusalem and the recent threats of demolishing Palestinian homes in various Jerusalem neighbourhoods are part of this evil plan.
Meanwhile the Imam of the Aqsa Mosque Dr. Yousuf Salamah warned of the dangers of the Zionist plans against the Aqsa Mosque expressing his fear that if the Muslims and Arabs do not make a move now to save the Mosque they will wake up one day at the news of the destruction of the Aqsa Mosque.
Israeli occupation authorities have handed on Thursday demolition notices to 36 Palestinian families in the Silwan neighbourhood as part of the ethnic cleansing efforts of the occupation.
