(AhlulBayt News Agency) - Israeli police on Tuesday set up the fourth watchtower in the vicinity of Bab al-Amoud gate to al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Occupied Al-Quds (Jerusalem).
Israeli policemen had earlier installed three watchtowers in the Old City of Occupied Al-Quds (Jerusalem).
The Islamic Awqaf (endowment) Department in Occupied Al-Quds (Jerusalem) warned of Israeli attempts to gradually impose its sovereignty over al-Aqsa Mosque.
A joint statement by Awqaf Council, Supreme Islamic Committee and Islamic Awqaf Department asserted that Israeli authorities have been trying to take control over the eastern side of the holy shrine including Bab al-Rahma gate since the end of the holy month of Ramadan.
The statement condemned the Israeli attempts to change the status quo in al-Aqsa Mosque and refused any Israeli intervention to manage the affairs of the mosque. The statement also held Israeli authorities responsible for any violations at the holy site.
