Brussels, 4 Dzulhijjah 1436/18 September 2015 (MINA) – The Union of Islamic Organizations in Europe Wednesday voiced deep concern over simmering Israeli violence at Muslims’ holy Al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Al Quds (Jerusalem).

The Union of Islamic Organizations in Europe said it has been keeping tabs on the Israeli escalation in Occupied Jerusalem and the provocative assaults on Al-Aqsa and the Muslim worshipers, The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.

The union denounced such Israeli attacks, dubbing them a real threat to Islamic holy sites and the Muslim congregation.

“It has become as evident as daylight that the extremist Israeli government is imposing a new fait accompli in Occupied Jerusalem using armed force and racist polices in an attempt to hold sway over the Mosque and divide it.”

“Such a fierce aggression against Al-Aqsa along with the daily break-ins and vandalism can never be tolerated, for they are extremely dangerous and offensive to all Muslims around the world,” the statement further read.

The group called on the European and international communities to urge the Israeli occupation to cease such sacrilegious schemes on Islamic holy places of worship.

“How on earth can the world remain mum over such Israeli attacks and provocative vandalism in Occupied Jerusalem?” the group wondered.

The union expressed its solidarity with the unarmed Palestinian sit-inners, particularly women, who have been standing as bulletproof vests for Al-Aqsa.(T/P008/R03)
