MK Mansour Abbas, chairman of the Islamist Ra’am party, thanks Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the “responsible decision” not to limit the number of people allowed to access the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount during the first week of Ramadan compared to previous years.
In the same statement on X, formerly Twitter, he calls on the “Arab public to exercise their right to pray and observe the commandments during the holy month, while maintaining the law and public order.”
