On Thursday, the Hamas terror group released a statement denouncing MK Tzvi Succot of the Religious Zionism party for visiting the Har Habayis, where he davened and bowed in prostration.
“The storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque by settlers, with the participation of the extremist terrorist ‘Tzvi Succot,’ under heavy security protection from the occupation army and police, constitutes a continuation of the occupation’s frantic attempts to Judaize and seize Islamic holy sites,” Hamas declared.
The group continued: “We assure Ben-Gvir and other extremist occupation leaders that all of the occupation’s measures against our land and holy sites will disappear with its inevitable demise, and that they will not succeed in changing the Arab-Islamic identity of Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque.”
They went on to urge broader support across the Muslim world: “We call on the sons of our Arab and Islamic nation to rise up in support of their people who are steadfast in Palestine, defending the first Qiblah (direction of prayer) of Muslims and the nation’s holy sites and constants. We demand that the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation take urgent action and take measures to protect Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque.”
In response, MK Succot issued a firm statement: “The days of fear are over. For years, there were no prayers on the Har Habayis out of fear of the enemy, and there is no reason for the reign of fear to continue. We will not be deterred by terror organizations, and we will continue Jewish possession and sovereignty over all the areas of our land until the enemy is destroyed.”
