Palestinian ministry condemns Israeli property seizure plan near Al-Aqsa The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned an Israeli plan to seize up to 20 properties near the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem, calling it “ethnic cleansing”. The properties are located in the Bab as-Silsila area adjacent to the mosque, considered Islam’s third-holiest site. The ministry said the move was part of a broader effort by Israel to gradually displace Palestinians from the area while expanding the number of Israeli residents.
