Jordan condemns ongoing Israeli raids in Al-Aqsa Mosque
Jordan on Sunday condemned ongoing incursions by Israeli settlers into the Al-Aqsa Mosque/ Al-Haram Al-Sharif under the protection of the Israeli occupation police, and said such acts are a violation to the historical and legal status in the holy compound as well as its sanctity.
In a statement, Spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Sinan Majali said the 144-dunum Al Aqsa Mosque is a pure Muslim holy site and that the Jordan-run Jerusalem Awqaf and Aqsa Affairs Department is the sole authority tasked with supervising all its affairs.
According to the official spokesperson, the Israeli government is responsible for the recent escalation of tensions in Jerusalem and the occupied Palestinian territories. The spokesperson also warned that the situation may further deteriorate if Israel continues to incite tensions at the Al-Aqsa mosque and harass worshippers during the holy month.
The spokesperson reiterated that Israel, being the occupying authority, has a legal obligation to abide by international laws, stop any actions that would violate the sanctity of the holy sites and put an end to any attempts to alter the established historical and legal status of the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound.
