IOA CONTINUES TO IMPLEMENT STRAUSS HOUSE PROJECT IN AL-AQSA MOSQUE
According to the foundation, the project came in parallel with the Israeli policy to wipe out Islamic relics in al-Aqsa Mosque. A new wide patio, made of concrete, was poured on the ruins of Islamic monuments, Palestine Information center (PIC) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.
Strauss House project is a 1716-square-meter building consisting of three floors and containing a police station, a religious school, a synagogue, an exhibition hall, reception halls and dozens of WCs.
In this context, the foundation confirmed that the IOA approved an agreement to pave the way for Elad settlement association to take control over al-Aqsa Mosque from the western and southern sides.
The organization said that Elad organization aims to establish settlement projects around al-Aqsa Mosque in Silwan town in order to link between Israeli settlements in Wadi Hilweh neighborhood in the town and Buraq square.
Al-Aqsa Foundation said that Israeli authorities work to implement Judaization and settlement projects aiming to facilitate the arrival of millions of settlers in addition to facilitating tourists’ access to Buraq square.(T/P02/P04)
