Hamas statement on Ben Gvir crossing all red lines and exposing the Prophet’s Mosque to great danger

Hamas called on Palestinian fighters to escalate military action against Israeli sites after Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The movement said in a statement: “We denounce the Arab and Islamic silence regarding the ongoing attacks against Al-Aqsa Mosque and the blessed city of Jerusalem, the latest of which was the criminal Ben Gvir’s storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque and the settlers performing the so-called epic prostration in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa in a new disregard for the feelings of two billion Muslims.”

She added: "The terrorist Ben Gvir's attack today on Al-Aqsa Mosque is a crossing of all red lines and shows once again the extent of the danger facing the Prophet's place of ascension, and reveals the Nazi entity's government's continuation of its Judaization plans that target Al-Aqsa Mosque, its Islamic and Arab entity and identity, and changing the reality there."

She continued: "We mobilize all our people in the West Bank, inside and Jerusalem for a comprehensive uprising in defense of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque and in revenge for the blood and sanctities that the criminal enemy violates. We call on our people's fighters and the knights of the Mujahideen Brigades to escalate military action against the enemy's positions and settlements."

She called on: "The nation to play its role in protecting the place of the Prophet's Night Journey and to pressure the normalizing regimes that continue to normalize relations with the criminal Zionist entity in light of the crimes of genocide in Gaza and the ongoing violation of the nation's sanctities in Palestine."
