He stressed that “Israel’s attacks on Al-Aqsa Mosque and its policies based on threats and provocations with the aim of seizing the places of residence of Muslims cannot be accepted.”

On Friday, the Turkish Foreign Ministry strongly condemned the recent killing of 7 Palestinians by the Israeli security forces in different cities and the wounding of Al-Aqsa Mosque.

On Friday, the Israeli police stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque while the worshipers were present, injuring dozens of Palestinians inside and arresting hundreds.

For days, tension has prevailed in the city of Jerusalem and the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, in light of calls by Israeli settlers and Jewish “temple groups” to storm Al-Aqsa coinciding with the Jewish Passover holiday.
