Senior Hamas member Abdul Rahman Shadid has called for “a large mobilisation” in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound during the holy month of Ramazan and to break the Israeli restrictions in the occupied East Jerusalem, Al Jazeera reports.

“We must not surrender to the expected restrictions of the occupation, and we must confront them with all our strength and adhere to our historical and religious right to the blessed mosque,” he said in a statement published on the group’s Telegram channel.

He stressed the need to “invest the opportunity of the month of Ramadan in protecting Al-Aqsa with roaring crowds, and decorating its courtyard with worshipers and guards”.
