September saw 26 Al-Aqsa breaches and 150 call to prayer bans
In September, there was a noticeable increase in violations by the Israeli occupation and settlers against the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Ibrahimi Mosque. The Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs recorded 26 incursions into the Al-Aqsa Mosque and 150 prohibitions on the call to prayer at the Ibrahimi Mosque, in addition to attacks on other mosques in the West Bank. These violations included a complete closure of the Ibrahimi Mosque for six days during Jewish holidays, ongoing closure of the eastern gate, and covering the windows with barriers since the start of 2025. There were also organized incursions by Israeli ministers. Additionally, demands increased to open the Al-Aqsa Mosque to settlers on Saturdays, and collective prayers and rituals began in the Bab al-Rahma Cemetery. Talmudic practices inside the courtyards of Al-Aqsa also intensified, including performing the prostration of exaltation and public rituals. The violations were not limited to these two mosques; the Imad al-Din Zanki Mosque in Nablus was burned, with racist phrases written on its walls. Settlers attacked the Madama Mosque, throwing gas canisters inside, causing suffocation injuries, and the prayer hall in Al-Da’isa in Jericho was also demolished. The ministry views this escalation as part of a deliberate strategy to Judaize Islamic holy sites and to consolidate control over religious places, exploiting Jewish holidays to escalate violations with the protection of occupation forces.
