Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has called for protection of Al-Aqsa Mosque against Israeli settlers’ raid on the holy site.

Muhammad Hamadeh, Spokesman of Hamas for Occupied Jerusalem has called on the Palestinian people to intensify their presence at the Al-Aqsa Mosque and protect it against Jewish settlers’ incursions.
 
Hamadeh issued a press statement on Friday, warning that the Israeli occupation aims at Judaizing Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque, calling on Palestinian youths to foil the Israeli plans.
 
“The Palestinian people and resistance will continue defending their lands and holy sites until there will be no place for the invaders,” Hamadeh stressed. 
 
He held Israeli regime responsible for the repercussions of its desecration and Judaization plans in Occupied Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
 
The Jewish temple mount groups have been planning to launch massive raids into the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the 18th of December to celebrate Hanukkah which is set to continue until the 26th of December.
