Amman – Saba:
The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates on Wednesday strongly condemned the storming of al-Aqsa Mosque/al-Haram al-Sharif by Israeli extremist Criminal Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, under police protection.
Jordan deemed it a "flagrant violation of international law," an "unacceptable escalation," and a provocation demanding immediate cessation.
Ministry spokesperson Ambassador Sufian al-Qudah affirmed Jordan's absolute rejection of extremist Ben Gvir's continued incursions and the Israeli police's facilitation of repeated al-Aqsa breaches, alongside restrictions on Muslim worshippers.
He stated this violates the historical and legal status quo and attempts temporal and spatial division, emphasizing that East al-Quds remains an occupied city without Israeli sovereignty.
Ambassador al-Qudah warned of the consequences of these illegitimate violations against holy sites in al-Quds, urging Israeli enemy to halt all provocative practices by Ben Gvir, which continue the "dangerous escalation" in the occupied West Bank.
He reiterated that the entire 144-dunam al-Aqsa Mosque area is exclusively for Muslim worship, with the Jordanian-affiliated al-Quds Endowments Department holding sole administrative jurisdiction.
