Hamas warned of escalating raids on Al-Aqsa Mosque and attacks on Jerusalem, Shehab Wire reported. Haroun Nasreddine, a Hamas political bureau member and head of Jerusalem affairs, linked the incursions to broader Israeli operations and urged a coordinated Palestinian, Arab, and Islamic response to counter what he described as settlement plans.
Nasreddine's statement reflects Hamas concerns over heightened activity at the mosque compound, a site of repeated Israeli-Palestinian tensions and a focal point for Palestinian nationalist sentiment.
