Hamas Official: Al-Aqsa Mosque at 'Crossroads' Amid Israeli Actions
Khaled Meshaal, a senior Hamas official based abroad, stated that the Al-Aqsa Mosque is at a "crossroads." He asserted that Israel is actively working to establish a new religious, administrative, and spatial reality at the site.
According to Meshaal, Israel's actions aim to deepen the division of the compound in time and space, undermine the role of the Islamic Waqf, and impose Israeli management over the mosque. He characterized these efforts as a comprehensive process to alter Al-Aqsa's identity and seize control, rather than isolated incidents.
Meshaal's remarks highlight Hamas's perspective on Israeli activities at the sensitive holy site, framing them as a deliberate strategy to change its status and control.
