Awqaf reports 26 Al-Aqsa breaches and 155 prayer disruptions at Ibrahimi in August
The Palestinian Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs documented in its monthly report an escalation in violations carried out by Israeli occupation authorities and settlers against Islamic holy sites during August. The report recorded 26 incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque and 155 restrictions on the call to prayer (adhan) at Hebron's Ibrahimi Mosque. These incursions mainly occurred through the Mughrabi Gate and involved performing religious rituals, provocative settlement activities, and the use of Jewish religious tools and materials, alongside the implementation of tightened security measures. These measures included deploying special forces and security personnel, under incitement from extremist Jewish groups. The occupation authorities also imposed restrictions on worshippers in Jerusalem, including the expulsion of Mufti Sheikh Muhammad Hussein. Additionally, they continued their siege and oppressive measures in Hebron, such as banning the call to prayer and covering windows of the shrine. Attacks on mosques and Islamic sites across various areas were also reported, including the raising of the Israeli flag on a mosque minaret in Umm al-Fahm. The ministry considers these actions blatant violations of international law and calls on the international community to intervene to halt these assaults and to preserve the legal and historical status of Islamic sacred sites.
