Al-Aqsa Mosque faces occupation threats
The risks facing Al-Aqsa Mosque are escalating amid increasing settler intrusions and attempts to impose a new reality within its courtyards. The year 2025 saw a 21.5% increase in settler incursions, reaching approximately 73,871 compared to 60,792 in 2024. Israeli policies in occupied Jerusalem threaten the historical and religious identity of the mosque, with the Islamic Waqf’s role in managing its affairs diminishing, and new restrictions being imposed on its authority. Additionally, settlers are permitted to perform rituals inside the courtyards. Arab, Islamic, and international experts and officials are calling for concrete action to halt the Judaization policies, emphasizing that the responsibility to protect Al-Aqsa lies with Arab states and international organizations. They stress that official statements are not enough and that proactive measures are essential to preserve its historical and legal status.
