Egypt calls Flag March, Temple Mount visits by lawmakers an 'irresponsible escalation'

Egypt condemns the “storming” of several ministers and MKs of the Temple Mount earlier today — language Arab nations generally use to refer to their visits — and also criticizes the ongoing Jerusalem Day Flag March which passes through the Muslim Quarter of the Old City.

Cairo calls the incidents and the “accompanying provocations” against the Palestinians an “an irresponsible escalation that fuels tensions.”
