REPORT: OVER 1.000 SETTLERS DEFILED THE AQSA MOSQUE LAST MONTH

Al-Quds, 24 Safar 1437/6 December 2015 (MINA) – About 1,160 Jewish settlers and intelligence officers desecrated the Aqsa Mosque last November, according to a recent report released by Qpress.

The report stated that most of the settlers’ break-ins at the Mosque went smoothly during the month because of the tight Israeli security measures inside and outside the Islamic holy place, The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting recently.

The report also highlighted Israel’s Judaization activities around the Aqsa Mosque compound, most notably its decision that gave the notorious Ir David (Elad) foundation jurisdiction over the Umayyad Palaces area at the southern wall of the Mosque.

On the last day of November, a plan to carry out a Jewish project known as Beit Haliba at the western wall of the Aqsa Mosque was approved at the behest of Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu.

The Israeli government also issued last month a verdict outlawing the Islamic Movement led by Sheikh Ra’ed Salah in addition to 20 other Palestinian civil organizations as punishment for their active defense of the Aqsa Mosque.(T/P008/R04)
