The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) condemned today, on Tuesday, Israel’s intention to restrict Palestinian access to the Al -Aqsa mosque during the month of Ramadan, and called for a traveler to him And to approach all the attempts to “desecate” and “impose control”.
The movement said – in a press release – “We condemn the occupation plans aimed at restricting access to the Al -Aqsa mosque during Ramadan, and we call to intensify the tension of travel and Rabat, and confront all attempts by the enemy to desecrate and impose control. “
She added: “We condemn the strongest terms than the occupation police and their plans recommended to restrict the arrival of the faithful to the Bénie Al -Aqsa mosque during the month of Ramadan, so only 10,000 worshipers are allowed to make Friday prayers there. “
She stressed that “these recommendations are a new escalation against our people, our land and our sanctities, and a dangerous precedent aimed at prejudice to freedom of worship in the Al -aqsa mosque”.
It also represents a “blatant violation of all celestial standards, alliances and laws, a direct provocation to the feelings of Muslims and a miserable attempt to impose an alleged control of the Bénie Al -aqsa mosque”, according to the press release.
The movement pointed out that “the crimes of the occupation and its aggressive plans against the Al -aqsa mosque are the kiss of the first Muslims and the third of the two holy mosques, will not succeed in blurring its features, to change its identity and to absent his story. “
The Islamic Cooperation Organization (57 countries) and the international community also called for “a serious decision to stop the crimes and violations of the occupation against the Al -aqsa mosque, and to allow our people to exercise its free rituals in the Al -Aqsa mosque.
It should be noted that the official Israeli broadcasting authority declared the day before that the police had put their forces on a high alert in preparation for the month of Ramadan, and intends to deploy 3 thousand police officers per day to the obstacles leading to the city of Jerusalem at the Al -Aqsa mosque.
The police recommended that the government, as last year, to grant entry visas to the Al -Aqsa mosque to 10,000 residents of the Palestinian regions (occupied West Bank), according to the Commission.
Each year, Israel imposes measures to restrict the arrival of the Palestinians at the Al -aqsa mosque, in East Jerusalem -East, during the month of Ramadan, which begins after days.
The Palestinians consider these restrictions within the intensive Measures of Israel to Judaize East Jerusalem and Blur Its Arab and Islamic Identity, and Adhere to East Jerusalem as the Capital of Their Desired State, Based on International Legitimacy Decisions, Which do not recognize israel’s occupation of the City in 1967 or its inclusion in 1981.
