Iran calls Israel ‘terrorists’ over arrests of Muslims on Temple Mount

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweets a photo of Israeli police officers arresting Muslim women today as they were clearing the Temple Mount of rioters trying to prevent Jews from entering the holy compound on the fast day of Tisha B’Av, which coincides with the Islamic Eid al-Adha festival.

He calls it a “crime” and “tyranny,” and calls the Israeli leadership “terrorists.”
