04 April 2022; MEMO: Israeli authorities yesterday banned the Deputy Director of the Jerusalem Islamic Waqf Council, Sheikh Najeh Bakirat, from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque for six months.
Quds Press quoted local sources as saying that the occupation's intelligence services summoned Bakirat and interrogated him "before handing him a ban."
Bakirat has been arrested numerous times, banned from entering Al-Aqsa and from traveling over the past few years.
In recent years, the Israeli occupation has banned a number of Palestinians from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque for periods ranging from one week to several months.
