AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Jordan on Monday condemned Israel’s stopping renovation works at the Dome of the Rock mosque at Al-Aqsa compound in East al-Quds (Jerusalem).
On Sunday, Israeli regime police moved into the complex and prevented workers from the al-Quds (Jerusalem) Islamic Waqf from carrying out renovation works at the mosque.
In a statement, the Jordanian Foreign Ministry rejected the Zionist action, saying the al-Quds Islamic Waqf “is the sole authority responsible for taking care and overseeing the compound”.
The Waqf is a Jordanian-run organization responsible for overseeing Islamic and Christian holy sites in al-Quds (Jerusalem).
Israel occupied East al-Quds (Jerusalem), where Al-Aqsa is located, during the 1967 Arab-Israeli War. It annexed the entire city in 1980 in a move never recognized by the international community.
