Al-Aqsa Incursions and Call to Prayer Bans
The Palestinian Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs documented 26 intrusions into Al-Aqsa Mosque during August, in addition to preventing the call to prayer (Adhan) at the Ibrahimi Mosque 155 times within the same month. These actions are part of the escalating Israeli occupation measures, which continue to impose repression and restrictions on worshippers. The escalation included settler incursions guarded by heavy security, provocative Talmudic rituals, and tightened security procedures such as banning the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem from the mosque, restricting access around the Dome of the Rock, closing mosque gates, installing barriers, and sealing areas inside the sanctuary. There are also ongoing excavations and continuous efforts to Judaize the site. The ministry considers these practices a blatant violation of Muslims' rights and a threat to the historical and legal status of the holy sites. It condemns the accomplice role of the occupation authorities and calls on the international community to intervene and put an end to these violations.
