CAPITALS July 19. 2024 (Saba) -The storming of the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem by the so-called Minister of National Security in the Zionist enemy government, Itamar Ben Gvir, today, Thursday, sparked wide Palestinian and Arab condemnation, stressing that Ben Gvir's storming is a continuous slap in the face to the normalizers who continue to supply the entity and break the siege imposed on it by the heroes of the Yemeni armed forces.
In this context, the Resistance Committees in Palestine said in a statement: Ben Gvir's storming of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque under heavy guard from the Zionist enemy police confirms that this entity is led by a fascist, rogue leadership.
It added: Ben Gvir's storming and desecration of the Al-Aqsa Mosque is an extension of the Zionist war on mosques, their desecration, bombing and demolition in the Gaza Strip.
She continued: "The continued storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque by Ben Gvir and the extremist gangs of the Zionist entity is a continuous slap in the face to the normalizers who continue to supply the entity and break the siege imposed on it by the heroes of the Yemeni Arab Army."
In turn, the Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem condemned this storming, indicating that the storming of Al-Aqsa by Ben Gvir and other Zionist extremists is carried out by force of arms.
For its part, the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned Ben Gvir's storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque with the participation of his extremist followers and under the protection of the Zionist enemy police.
The Palestinian Foreign Ministry said in a statement: This storming provides an official Zionist cover for the ongoing storming, and for the Judaization plans that Al-Aqsa Mosque is exposed to, and the imposition of forced changes to its historical and legal reality, as an integral part of the Judaization of Jerusalem, changing its identity and emptying it of its original owners.
It warned of the dangers of the continued Zionist targeting of the holy sites in the arena of conflict and the entire region.
The Palestinian Foreign Ministry held the Zionist government fully and directly responsible for this "provocative" incursion, calling for urgent international intervention to protect Jerusalem and its holy sites, especially Al-Aqsa Mosque, and to translate international positions and demands into actions that force the occupying entity to stop its illegal unilateral measures.
Meanwhile, the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas said in a statement: "We consider this step a provocation and a dangerous escalation, which comes within the efforts of the Zionist extremist government to Judaize Al-Aqsa Mosque, which our steadfast people will not allow in the face of the crimes and aggression of the occupation on their land and holy sites."
Hamas called on the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the Arab League to take serious action to stop these systematic violations against Al-Aqsa Mosque, and to take urgent steps that force the occupying entity to stop the crime of Judaization that it is committing against Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem and all of occupied Palestine.
The Palestinian Mujahideen Movement also condemned this incursion, and the Arab and Islamic silence on the continued attacks against Al-Aqsa Mosque and the nation's holy sites, considering the incursion to be "another disregard for the feelings of two billion Muslims."
In a statement, it said: Ben Gvir's attack on Al-Aqsa Mosque "shows once again the extent of the danger threatening the Noble Prophet's Night Journey, and reveals the Nazi entity's government's continuation of its Judaization plans targeting Al-Aqsa Mosque and its Islamic and Arab identity."
It called on all the masses of the people in the West Bank, the interior, and Jerusalem to mobilize in a comprehensive uprising "in defense of Al-Aqsa Mosque, and in revenge for the blood and sanctities violated by the criminal enemy," and called for escalating military action against the Zionist enemy's sites and settlements.

It said in a statement: "This provocative criminal step is part of the systematic plans aimed at seizing the holy places and changing the temporal and spatial reality therein."
The Popular Front stressed in its statement that what is happening in Al-Aqsa Mosque is not just a violation of the sanctity of a holy religious place; Rather, it is an attempt to obliterate the Palestinian identity of this holy site and the holy places, as well as an attempt to escalate the Zionist aggression and measures in the West Bank and Jerusalem, coinciding with the ongoing war of extermination in the Gaza Strip.
The Front held the American, the international community, and the official Arab regime responsible for the escalating crimes and the desecration of holy places.
It called on the masses in Jerusalem, the West Bank, and the occupied interior to mobilize widely and permanently in the Holy City, especially within the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, to confront the Zionist attacks, to defend the Arab identity and identity of Al-Aqsa Mosque, and to thwart the plans of Ben Gvir and the Zionist political system.
For its part, the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine condemned Ben Gvir's violation of the sanctity of the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque this morning, armed with the weapons of the occupation police, as a dangerous attack that reveals the entity's continuation and persistence in Judaization plans and efforts to extend control over the sanctities of our nation.
In a statement, it said: "We call on our people and all Muslims everywhere to respond to this barbaric terrorist attack, in defense of the path of our noble Messenger and our sanctities."
It condemned the Arab and Islamic silence regarding these attacks that target the nation's sanctities, dignity and history.
It held the regimes that normalized relations with the Zionist entity fully responsible for their continued normalization; whoever does not care about the blood of children, women and civilians, the enemy will not respect his dignity or sanctities.
