Palestinians have rallied in Gaza to protest Israeli violations against Jerusalem al-Quds. The Friday rally comes amid an increase in Israeli violations against the occupied Holy City.
People in the besieged Gaza Strip held a rally following the Friday prayers to express their solidarity with Jerusalem al-Quds and the al-Aqsa mosque compound.
Angry protesters shouted slogans against the Israeli regime and vowed to sacrifice their lives for the al-Aqsa mosque They also denounced the United States’ unwavering support for Tel-Aviv.
Last week, an Israeli court ordered the closure of Bab al-Rahma, the eastern gate of the Al-Aqsa mosque compound. Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement who organized the Friday rally says the Israeli regime’s Judaization plans in Jerusalem al-Quds will never succeed.
Israeli officials have been trying to Judaize the holy Muslim city of Jerusalem al-Quds by demolishing Palestinian homes and building illegal Jewish settlements.
Hamas movement has warned the Israeli regime against violations at al-Aqsa Mosque, emphasizing that any provocative move against the sacred site will only infuriate Palestinians.
Jewish settlers backed by Israeli forces have been violating the sanctity of the al-Aqsa mosque compound since past several weeks. Protesters in the Gaza Strip vowed to increase their solidarity with Jerusalem al-Quds until the removal of all the Israeli violations in the holy city.
Palestinians consider Jerusalem al-Quds as the capital of a future Palestinian state. Palestinians in the besieged coastal enclave say that they will use all forms of resistance against the Israeli occupation until the liberation of Jerusalem al-Quds.
