Dr. Ekrema Sabri, the Khatib (preacher) of the Aqsa mosque, lashed out at the Jewish settlers for repeatedly storming the holy site.

Addressing a Friday congregation of 250000 worshipers at the Aqsa mosque, Sabri said that the Aqsa is not owned by the Israeli occupation authority to allow break-ins of its soldiers and settlers at will.

He warned Muslims against letting down the Aqsa, the third holiest shrine in Islam, and asked all Palestinians capable of reaching Al-Haram Al-Sharif to do so.

He said that the big number of worshipers reflect a rejection of occupation, adding that anyone barred from reaching the Aqsa should pray at the place where he was barred.
