Ministry of<br \/>\nAwqaf and Religious Affairs has released its monthly report on Israeli<br \/>\nviolations against Al-Aqsa Mosque, the Ibrahimi Mosque, and all places of<br \/>\nworship during January.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">The report stated that the<br \/>\noccupation forces and settlers carried out more than 28 raids on Al-Aqsa<br \/>\nMosque, in addition to implementing Judaization schemes affecting the site.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">It explained that Israeli forces<br \/>\nrestricted worshippers, particularly during the dawn prayer, detained young<br \/>\nmen, and checked their IDs at the mosque\u2019s gates and around the Old City, while<br \/>\nsettlers continued performing public prostrations in the courtyards of the<br \/>\nQibli Prayer Hall and the Dome of the Rock during Friday prayers, in blatant<br \/>\nviolation of the sanctity of the site.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">The report also noted that the<br \/>\noccupation authorities held a graduation ceremony for their soldiers at the<br \/>\nWestern Wall (Al-Buraq Wall) adjacent to the mosque, in a provocative display.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">At the Ibrahimi Mosque, the<br \/>\nreport indicated that the occupation prevented the call to prayer (Adhan) 57<br \/>\ntimes during the month, maintained the closure of the Souq Gate and Eastern<br \/>\nGate since the beginning of the year, fixed locks on service doors, restricted<br \/>\nthe entry of some staff, and deliberately delayed the muezzin.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">The forces also conducted<br \/>\nhumiliating inspections of worshippers and staff, using offensive language,<br \/>\nescorted over 550 soldiers in civilian clothes to storm the prayer halls, while<br \/>\nexcavation works continued in the Ashrafiyya Corner without clarification.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">The Ministry confirmed that<br \/>\nthese violations constitute a blatant assault on the authority of the Awqaf, a<br \/>\nthreat to the sanctity of the Ibrahimi Mosque, an affront to Muslim feelings,<br \/>\nand an attempt to seize control of the site.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">The report also highlighted<br \/>\nongoing violations against other holy sites, including raids on Jawhar and<br \/>\nAl-Shuhada mosques in Hebron with internal inspections, and settlers spitting<br \/>\non the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, in a provocative act targeting<br \/>\nthe Christian presence and its holy sites.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">The Ministry concluded that<br \/>\nthese practices are part of ongoing violations against Islamic and Christian<br \/>\nholy sites, aimed at restricting citizens and preventing them from performing<br \/>\ntheir religious rituals freely and safely. It held the occupation fully<br \/>\nresponsible and called on international and human rights organizations to<br \/>\nurgently intervene to halt these violations and protect the holy sites.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20.0pt;\nline-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">(Source: Agencies)<span lang=\"AR-SA\" dir=\"RTL\"><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><span lang=\"AR-SA\" dir=\"RTL\" style=\"font-size:1.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\"><o:p>&nbsp;<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" dir=\"RTL\" style=\"text-align: justify; unicode-bidi: embed;\"><span lang=\"AR-SA\" style=\"font-size:18.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:\n&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640\u0640<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" dir=\"RTL\" style=\"text-align: justify; unicode-bidi: embed;\"><b><span lang=\"AR-SA\" style=\"font-size:18.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:\n&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;;color:#EE0000\">* \u0644\u0644\u0627\u0637\u0644\u0627\u0639 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0631\u062c\u0645\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0627\u0645\u0644\u0629 \u0644\u0644\u062e\u0628\u0631 \u0628\u0627\u0644\u0644\u063a\u0629<br \/>\n\u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a\u0629\u060c <\/span><\/b><b><span lang=\"AR-SA\" style=\"font-size:18.0pt;line-height:\n115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\">\u0627\u0636\u063a\u0637 (<span style=\"color:#EE0000\"><a href=\"https:\/\/iumsonline.org\/ar\/ContentDetails.aspx?ID=40946\" target=\"_blank\">\u0647\u0646\u0627<\/a><\/span>).<\/span><\/b><b><span dir=\"LTR\" style=\"font-size:18.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Sakkal Majalla&quot;\"><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Palestinian Awqaf: 28 Al-Aqsa Raids and 57 Adhan Restrictions at Ibrahimi Mosque in January<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":59350,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[414],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-59041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-our-news-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59041","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59041"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59041\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59350"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59041"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59041"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iumsonline.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59041"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
