Sheikh Mohammad Hussein, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and Palestine, has strongly condemned the raid earlier today by Israeli police on the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied Jerusalem and the forcible eviction of Muslim worshipers from the holy site.
The Grand Mufti described the Israeli raid and the eviction of worshipers as a “severely dangerous attack on the sentiments and beliefs of Muslims,” adding that the Israeli escalation “aims at achieving the interests of extremist settler groups that seek a religious war in the region.”
He denounced the threats made by the so-called Israeli “Temple Mount groups” about their intention to break into the Al-Aqsa Mosque during the holy month of Ramadan under the pretext of Jewish holidays.
