Al-Aqsa Incursions and Ibrahimi Prayer Bans
According to a report by the Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs, last July witnessed an escalation in Israeli violations against Islamic holy sites. The report recorded 27 incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque and prevented the call to prayer (adhan) 155 times in the Ibrahimi Mosque. These violations included the performance of Talmudic prayers, epic prostrations, wearing tefillin, raising Israeli flags, and the introduction of stones and the erection of a tent — a precedent since 1967. The courtyards of Al-Aqsa also experienced unprecedented scenes, such as a khutbah (sermon) delivered in Hebrew, the imposition of strict security measures, and the detention of the mosque’s preacher and the district’s mufti for extended periods. In Hebron, movement restrictions in the Ibrahimi Mosque continued, with Israeli forces closing the eastern gate and detaining dozens of soldiers. Additionally, three mosques were burned, and others damaged, with indications that these policies aim to impose a new reality within the holy sites. The report called on the international community to intervene and protect the legal and historical status quo.
