Jerusalem, MINA – The Jewish extremist, who is currently Israel’s Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir on Sunday announced his intention to storm the courtyard of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem this week.
According to Wafa quoted from Israeli media reports, Ben-Gvir has asked the Israeli police to coordinate raids on the Islamic holy site Al-Aqsa Mosque on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Ben-Gvir was sworn in as Israel’s Minister of National Security last week. He became a key member of Israel’s most right-wing, racist coalition government ever led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Ben-Gvir has publicly advocated dividing the Aqsa Mosque, which is the third holiest Muslim place of worship, between Muslims and Jews, a move that is likely to inflame the already tense situation in the Israeli-occupied territories. (T/RE1)
