Israeli Enemy Escalates Its Policy of Exclusion from Al-Aqsa Ahead of Ramadan

The spokesperson for the Quds Governorate Marouf Al-Rifai revealed on Monday that the Israeli enemy has recently seriously escalated decisions of exclusion from the blessed AlAqsa Mosque with the approach of the blessed month of Ramadan.

AlRifai explained in a statement to the Sind news agency that the Israeli enemy is preempting the blessed month of Ramadan by escalating the policy of exclusion from the blessed AlAqsa Mosque aiming to reduce the number of worshippers during Ramadan and impose new facts within AlHaram AlSharif.

He said that the number of those excluded ranges between 200 and 300 people so far pointing to the difficulty of accurately counting these numbers given that many Zionist exclusion decisions are communicated via phone or the WhatsApp application.

He added that the documentation available to the Governorate indicates the recording of about 150 exclusion cases since the beginning of last month noting that the end of last Ramadan witnessed a wide wave of exclusions that included various categories of Jerusalemites.

He clarified that the exclusion decisions have affected guards of AlAqsa Mosque employees of the Islamic Waqf in addition to Jerusalemite activists Murabitun and Murabitat sheikhs and imams pointing to the widening scope of targeting and the nonexclusion of any active category within AlAqsa.

He noted that the number of exclusion decisions over the past five years reached about 2630 decisions confirming that last January alone witnessed approximately 300 exclusion cases most of them under what the Israeli enemy calls preventive exclusions in preparation for Ramadan
