Germany urges “everyone to avoid actions that could increase tensions” after National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir visited the Temple Mount early this morning.
The status quo at the sensitive holy site “has long helped maintain the fragile peace and security around the holy sites. Germany urges everyone to avoid actions that could increase tensions,” Steffen Seibert, Berlin’s ambassador to Israel, writes on Twitter.
