Gaza, MINA – A senior Hamas official has declared that Israel’s plans to Judaize Jerusalem and impose new restrictions on Al-Aqsa Mosque will not succeed.
“Al-Aqsa is a red line. We will never allow the occupation’s schemes against the mosque and Jerusalem to prevail, no matter the cost,” said Haroun Nasser al-Din, head of Hamas’s Jerusalem Affairs Office, in a statement reported by the Palestine Information Center on Saturday.
He warned that ongoing raids by Israeli forces and settlers are part of a broader campaign to assert control over the holy site.
Nasser al-Din accused Israeli authorities of intensifying efforts to bar Palestinian worshippers from entering Al-Aqsa and to enforce a new status quo through force and Judaization policies.

“These attacks are systematic attempts to empty Al-Aqsa of its people and seize full control,” he said.
He also praised Palestinians for their continued presence and resistance despite escalating restrictions, harassment, and arrests. []
