Jordan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned the ongoing Israeli violations against al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, including extremists’ raids on the mosque and imposing restrictions on worshippers and Islamic Waqf personnel.

Jordan news agency Petra quoted the ministry’s Spokesperson Sufyan Qudah as saying Israel, as an occupying authority, must uphold its obligations in accordance with international law, and respect the historic and legal status of the holy sites and the feelings of Muslims, especially during the last 10 days of the Holy month of Ramadan.

He called on Israeli authorities to immediately halt all provocations in al-Aqsa Mosque, and held Israel fully responsible for the safety of the holy mosque and worshippers.
