Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan denounced the Israeli police raid on Jerusalem’s Al Aqsa Mosque, which led to clashes with worshippers. He said the mosque complex was a “red line” for Turkey.
Israeli forces, according to report, stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem’s Old City, firing stun grenades and attacking Palestinians.
On Wednesday, Israeli police in riot gear stormed the prayer hall of Al Aqsa Mosque before dawn, the second night in a row that they raided the mosque. At least 6 Palestinians have been injured, according to Aljazeera.
“Turkey cannot stay silent in the face of these attacks. Trampling on the Al-Aqsa mosque is our red line,” Erdogan said during a dinner for those breaking daytime fasting, a practice for the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Similarly, Palestinian envoy to the United Nations, UN, condemned Israeli action at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, saying Israel has ‘no right whatsoever’ to interrupt prayer.
Also, in a press statement on Thursday the government of Malaysia strongly condems the attacks by Israeli Occupation forces on worshippers in the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Yesterday, the Arab League, a regional organisation that includes 22 member countries, held an emergency meeting on the raids at Al-Aqsa Mosque.
