Occupied Quds - (Saba):
In a statement issued on Monday, the Quds Governorate condemned the attempt to slaughter a lamb inside Al-Aqsa Mosque by Zionist settlers, which it considers a dangerous development that cannot be tolerated.
The Governorate warned of an attempt by a group of extremist settlers this morning to smuggle a small lamb into Al-Aqsa Mosque for the purpose of slaughtering it within its courtyards, in a criminal attempt to violate the sanctity of the holiest site for Muslims after Mecca and Medina.
It stated that three settlers managed to smuggle a lamb hidden in a cloth bag through the Al-Ghawanmeh Gate in an attempt to slaughter the lamb according to Talmudic rituals.
It emphasized that this development constitutes a dangerous crossing of all red lines, adding: "If the slaughtering operation were carried out inside Al-Aqsa, no one can predict the repercussions arising from this criminal act."
The Governorate held the enemy authorities fully responsible for this serious crime and called for an immediate halt to settler attacks. It warned that continued collusion with these extremist groups and attempts to impose a fait accompli at Al-Aqsa Mosque could lead to dire consequences.
The Governorate called on the Palestinian people and the Arab and Islamic nations to take urgent and serious action to protect Al-Aqsa Mosque and thwart the enemy's plans to transform it into a synagogue as part of the plan for temporal and spatial division.
The Quds Governorate saluted the vigilance of the Al-Aqsa Mosque guards and their thwarting of the entry of the Eucharist despite the harassment, deportation, arrest, and attacks they face from the settler-led enemy police. It called for continued vigilance and vigilance against any new attempts by extremists against Islamic and Christian holy sites in Quds.
