Hamas, the Islamic Resistance Movement:

▪Ben Gvir’s storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque and the escalating assault in Jerusalem require decisive action at all levels

▪The desecration of Al-Aqsa Mosque by the extremist minister Ben Gvir, with the holding of prayers and religious rituals, and the escalation of the occupation’s assault on the holy city and its residents, calls for strong and effective action at all levels to thwart Judaization attempts and deter the occupation from its ongoing aggression

▪We affirm that the continued settler incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque come within the framework of a systematic plan targeting the mosque and the Old City in occupied Jerusalem to change their features and Arab and Islamic identity, stressing that these crimes will not succeed thanks to the steadfastness of the Jerusalemites and their confrontation of all Judaization schemes

▪We warn of the escalation of expulsion decisions from Al-Aqsa Mosque, which this year have approached one thousand expulsion orders, in addition to thousands of field expulsions that prevent access to the Old City and the mosque, as part of efforts to empty Al-Aqsa Mosque of its worshippers

▪We stress that these measures constitute a blatant attack on holy sites, calling for confronting the occupation’s plans and its Judaization projects in Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque. Nasser al-Din also called for a unified Palestinian, Arab, and Islamic stance to confront the dangers threatening Al-Aqsa Mosque, and for mobilization and readiness to confront Judaization against Al-Aqsa and the city of Jerusalem
