He praised the Aqsa guards and worshipers on commitment to their duty to protect the holy site, calling on those who can reach Al Aqsa to defend it.

The mufti also urged human rights organizations to put pressure on Israel, which violates all international norms and laws in dealing with Palestinian prisoners.
