The occupation forces continue their blatant attacks on the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, as settlers have proceeded to violate the sanctities, perform public Talmudic rituals in its courtyards, and raise the occupation flag over its corridors, within the framework of feverish preparations for what is called the “Great Storming” on May 15th, led by Temple groups with official, declared governmental support, in light of continuous and ongoing Arab and global silence.
These violations of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque and of Islamic and Christian sanctities in Al-Quds are a deliberate provocation and an intentional insult to all Muslims in the world, with the aim of dragging the entire region into a religious conflict.
This coincides with the continuation of crimes committed by the occupation army and herds of settlers in the occupied West Bank, including field executions, mass arrests, demolishing houses over the heads of their inhabitants, uprooting trees and agricultural crops, destroying infrastructure, and encouraging herds of settlers to spill Palestinian blood.
In the Gaza Strip, the occupation persists in violating the ceasefire agreement daily and escalates its attacks, causing a number of martyrs and wounded around the clock, with a continuous threat of resuming the aggression and the war of extermination around the clock, and continuing the unjust siege and the policy of starvation, while the world watches these crimes without lifting a finger.
We warn that the continuation of these practices will lead to a dangerous escalation, and we decry the suspicious official Arab silence and the shameful international complicity, which grants the occupier complete impunity and encourages it to persist in killing, destruction, and Judaization. We confirm that our people will not hesitate to defend their sanctities, land, and rights, and that the resistance forces will continue to confront the occupation’s crimes by all means and methods.
