Al-Aqsa Mosque anniversary
On the 57th anniversary of the burning of Al-Aqsa Mosque on August 21, 1969, it is remembered that Australian extremist deliberately set fire to the eastern wing of the mosque, causing significant damage and destroying parts of it, including historic components and rare decorations. Palestinians managed to rescue what remained of the mosque before the fires worsened, despite attempts by Israeli occupation authorities to prevent firefighting efforts and cut off water supplies to the area. Since 2003, occupation authorities have repeatedly raided the mosque, with an escalation in Jewish rituals and the raising of Israeli flags, alongside attempts to impose a symbolic presence of Talmudic tools. Since the start of the Israeli aggression against Palestinians in October 2023, such violations have intensified; for example, in 2026, there was a rise in the number of intruders and assaults, along with a prolonged closure of the mosque and repeated attempts to introduce sacrifices and Jewish religious rituals inside it. This is a clear escalation aimed at changing the mosque's Islamic character and weakening its historical and religious identity.
