No: 332, 7 October 2021, Press Release Regarding the Ruling of an Israeli Court Granting Jews the Right to Perform Prayers in al-Aqsa Mosque

Republic Of Türkiye Ministry Of Foreign Affairs 07.10.2021

We strongly condemn the ruling of an Israel court which claimed that Jews have the right to perform “silent” prayers in the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

It is an alarming possibility to be taken into account that this decision will further embolden fanatic circles that attempt to erode the status quo at the Al-Aqsa Mosque and will lead to new tensions.

We call on the international community to strongly oppose this wrong, illegal and dangerous decision and all provocations against the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
