Jordan condemns allowing Israeli flag march, settlers’ storming of al-Aqsa mosque
Jordan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned the storming of al-Aqsa mosque in Al-Quds by Israeli extremists and a Knesset member, warning of escalation due to permitting an Israeli flag march in Al-Quds, according to Jordan’s Petra news agency.
The Ministry's spokesperson Haitham Abu Alfoul said “the Israeli raids, protected by the Israeli police, are a violation of the historical and legal status quo and the international law, stressing that Al-Aqsa Mosque is purely a place of worship for Muslims and that the Jordanian-run Waqf (endowments) and al-Aqsa Affairs Administration in Al-Quds has the exclusive jurisdiction to run all the affairs of the holy site,” said Petra.
The spokesperson called on Israel, the occupying power, to stop practices and violations against the Al-Aqsa Mosque, respect its sanctity, halt measures aimed at altering the historical and legal status quo, and respect the Waqf and al-Aqsa Affairs Administration in Al-Quds, the agency added.
