Israeli Ministers and MKs Visit Temple Mount as Jews Pray Outside Mosques
Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Simcha Rothman, along with Knesset members Sharren Haskel and Amit Halevi, visited the Temple Mount recently. During their visit, Jewish worshippers prayed in the plaza outside the mosques on the site. The activist group Peace Now criticized the prayers, claiming they violated the longstanding status quo governing the area. The Israeli police responded that the prayers took place in an area along the official visit route and that officers were seen directing the visitors to continue moving forward. The incident highlights ongoing tensions surrounding access and religious practices on the Temple Mount, a site sacred to both Jews and Muslims.
