He said: The attempts of the occupation authorities to implement this step will cause massive anger, and will drag the entire region into a religious war whose results cannot be expected, calling on everyone who can reach the occupied city of Jerusalem and the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque to travel to them in order to stand up to the plans of the aggressive Israeli occupation authorities. And its aggressions through which it violates the place of our Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him.


The council added that these projects and incursions are nothing but a continuation of the Judaization series that targets Jerusalem and its blessed mosque, to create a new reality on the ground, stressing the rejection of these planned and planned violations by the occupation authorities and their police, and that the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque was, is and will remain Islamic.


The Council warned of the policy of escalating restrictions on Palestinian prisoners, and of the murders that occur within the Palestinian community in the 48 territories.
