Israeli occupation authorities handed a Jerusalemite a decision barring him from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque, Shehab Wire reported. The order restricts the resident's access to the holy site, part of a pattern of movement restrictions imposed on Palestinians in the occupied city.
The decision adds to mounting constraints on Palestinian worshippers' access to the mosque compound, one of Islam's holiest sites located in occupied East Jerusalem.
