Jordan Slams Israeli Aggression at Al-Aqsa Mosque

TEHRAN (IQNA) – The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates strongly condemned the Israeli aggression on worshippers at Al-Aqsa Mosque.

In a press brief, the ministry’s spokesman described the aggression on the worshippers as a “condemned and provocative practice”, Quds Press reported.

The spokesman also stressed that such Israeli practices violate the Tel Aviv regime’s obligations under international law, stating that Israel is the occupying power in Jerusalem al-Quds.

He emphasized that Israel must respect the sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque, the historical and legal status quo and the freedom of worshippers and their safety.

Yesterday, Israeli forces injured a number of Palestinians in an attack on the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied Jerusalem al-Quds aimed at preventing worshipers from performing Friday prayers.
