Islamic Emirate condemns Zionist regime’s attacks on Al Aqsa Mosque

“Committing acts of violence against defenseless individuals and attacking holy sites is in violation of international law,” the Ministry said.

The Ministry also called on Muslims to defend the oppressed people of Palestine, support their Intifada and condemn the heinous crimes of the zionist regime.

On Tuesday night, zionist officers raided Al Aqsa Mosque, using stun grenades and firing tear gas into the Qibli prayer hall, where hundreds of worshippers were staying overnight to pray.

Zionist troops beat worshippers with batons and riot guns, injuring dozens, before arresting several hundred.

Twenty-four hours later, armed officers again stormed the mosque while around 20,000 Palestinian worshippers were performing nightly Ramadan Taraweeh prayers.

They fired rubber-coated bullets, tear gas, and stun grenades to clear the mosque, before chasing people and beating them with batons. (ILKHA)
