Al-Aqsa Mosque

Senior Hamas official and head of the Movement’s Jerusalem Affairs Office, Haroun Nasser al-Din, reaffirmed on Friday that Al-Aqsa Mosque remains a religious and national priority, warning that the Zionist regime’s ongoing assaults and settler incursions are part of a broader campaign to take control of the sacred site.

The Hamas Movement has called for a mass mobilization to protect the Aqsa Mosque following a dangerous escalation — an attempt by Israeli settlers to smuggle and slaughter a sacrificial animal within the mosque compound.

Haroun Nasser Al-Din, member of Hamas’ Political Bureau and Head of its Al-Quds Affairs Office, warned on Wednesday that Zionist settler calls to fully open the Aqsa Mosque compound during the upcoming “Flag March” represent a grave escalation in the ongoing attempts to Judaize the holy site and impose full Israeli control over it.

Tens of thousands of Muslim worshipers performed Friday prayer at the Aqsa Mosque, despite heightened restrictions and intensified Israeli measures around and within the Old City of Occupied Al-Quds and the holy site.

The Lebanese resistance group has strongly denounced “the crime of hundreds of extremist settlers desecrating the sanctity of the blessed al-Aqsa Mosque” over the past three days.

The Hamas Movement called on the Palestinian people in the occupied West Bank, including Al-Quds, and the 1948-occupied territories, to intensify their presence at Aqsa Mosque and confront the settler Judaization attempts.

The Islamic Endowment Authority affirmed that around 90,000 Muslims performed the first Friday prayer in the holy month of Ramadan at the Aqsa Mosque in occupied Al-Quds.

The Zionist regime’s occupation police stormed the Aqsa Mosque’s courtyards and buildings and forced all the Muslim worshipers to leave it following the Isha and Tarawih prayer on Saturday night.

Hamas has urged all Palestinians to mount a “large mobilization” and resist Israeli restrictions on the al-Aqsa Mosque compound in the Old City of al-Quds during the holy month of Ramadan.

Thousands of Muslim worshipers performed on Friday the Isha and Tarawih prayers at the Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Al-Quds on the first night of the holy month of Ramadan.

On the 31st anniversary of a horrendous massacre against Palestinians by an extremist illegal Israeli settler, the resistance movement Hamas reaffirms that the regime’s bloodletting and crimes will not grant it “legitimacy or sovereignty” over even an inch of the Palestinian territories.

Tens of thousands of Palestinian worshipers have performed Friday prayers at Al-Aqsa Mosque amid tight Zionist regime’s restrictions which barred many youths from attending the mosque.
