Israeli Regime Imposes More Restrictions on Accessing al-Aqsa Mosque

Israeli Regime Imposes More Restrictions on Accessing al-Aqsa Mosque
Alwaght-Israeli regime forces continued to impose severe restrictions on Palestinians entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, the Palestinian Authority Ministry of Endowment said.
A ministry official in al-Quds (Jerusalem) told Palestinian Ma'an news agency that all gates to the compound, except for Hatta, Council and Chain gates, were closed adding that Israeli regime forces denied all Palestinian women entry while unusual inspections were carried out on Palestinian men before allowing them inside.
Even children attending Islamic schools in the compound were not spared as they were inspected thoroughly, the official said.
He highlighted that Israeli forces had been deployed inside the compound to protect right-wing Jews touring the site.
The director of the ministry's al-Quds office, Sheikh Omar al-Kiswani, denounced the Israeli regime restrictions, accusing Israeli forces of having "suspicious plans in al-Aqsa."
Israeli regime media on Monday reported that the regime’s Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan called on Defense Minister Moshe Yalon to ban from the al-Aqsa compound a group of Palestinians who protest the entry of extremist Jews into the compound.
The Palestinians, known as Murabiteen for men and Murabitat for women, are volunteers who stay inside the compound with the aim of preventing gangs of right-wing extremist Jews from invading the compound.
Tensions have been running high at the al-Aqsa Mosque compound over the past few months following regular incursions inside the mosque by hordes of Jewish settlers backed by Israeli regime forces.
Over the past decades, the Israeli regime has attempted to change the demographic makeup of the holy city by constructing illegal settlements, destroying historical sites, and expelling the local Palestinian population.
Reports say the Israeli regime is planning to build a synagogue in the al-Aqsa Mosque compound as part of its efforts to further Judaize the occupied territories.
