Sheikh Ekrima Sabri head of the Higher Islamic Council in Occupied Jerusalem has warned of Israeli attempts to control and seize specific areas of the Aqsa Mosque.
In a press release on Saturday Sheikh Sabri accused the Israeli occupation regime of “working on severing the Muslims’ ties with the Aqsa Mosque and deluding the settlers into believing that Palestine is the land the Jews deserve and that the temple will be built on the ruins of Aqsa in order to entice more Jewish migrants to live in Palestine.”
“The Aqsa Mosque has been living for three weeks in grief because of the occupation’s decision to prevent [Muslim] worshipers from entering it for prayers under the pretext of coronavirus which the occupation (Israel) is using to cover up its intents to Judaize Jerusalem” the Jerusalemite official said.
“The fire of the Aqsa Mosque has not been quenched and the massacres against it are committed repeatedly and in multiple forms through banishment detention identity checks and other measures that are pursued by the occupation against the Jerusalemite to empty the Aqsa Mosque of its people” he added.
