For the second day in a row, the Israeli occupation forces continue to search students' school bags at the entrances to Al-Aqsa Mosque, looking for books from the Palestinian curriculum in Jerusalem.

Two days ago, the occupation police confiscated a number of textbooks from the Palestinian curriculum from students' bags while they were on their way to the Sharia school and the "Riyad Al-Aqsa" kindergarten, which are located inside the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, under the pretext that they are from the Palestinian curriculum and the flag of Palestine is on them.

At the time, the Jerusalem Governorate considered that the seizure of books by the occupying forces was a new racist attack on Palestinian schools and our national curricula that implement the Palestinian curriculum.

The Israeli "Ministry of Education" and the occupation municipality in Jerusalem forced the school owners to sign a pledge that they had received books devoid of the Palestinian curriculum, otherwise those schools would be subject to the revocation of their license.
