The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned the ongoing Israeli Occupation violations in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque / Al-Haram Al-Sharif, the latest of which was storming the holy place by a number Jewish extremists under the protection of the Israeli Occupation police.

The official spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Affairs, Ambassador Haitham Abu Al-Foul, said in a statement Thursday that the acts of the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) are utterly rejected and denounced.

He added that Al Aqsa Mosque, with its total area of 144 dunums, is a place of worship for Muslims only, calling on the Israeli Occupation to stop its provocative acts and respect the authority of the Jordan-run Jerusalem and Aqsa Mosque Affairs Department.
