Ben Gvir affirms that he intends to visit the Temple Mount as national security minister, but stops short of confirming that he wishes to do so this week.

“I thank the media for taking an interest in the issue of visits to the Temple Mount,” Ben Gvir tweets in response to the Kan report.

“Indeed, the Temple Mount is an important topic, and, as I said, I intend to visit the Temple Mount,” he adds.

“As for the timetable — I promise to let you know when I do visit. I would be delighted if every evening’s newscasts would begin with reports dealing with the question of when I intend to visit the Temple Mount,” Ben Gvir says.
