“Ciobrs” center presented a new statistical in which they documented violations of the oc-cupation forces and settlers in Al-Aqsa Mosque and its surroundings in the month of June 2015. Since the beginning of this year until the end of the month of June 180 worshipers at Al-Aqsa Mosque have been arrested; the majority of these arrests led to exclusion from Al-Aqsa for periods ranging from two weeks to three months, including 3 exclusions for 2 men and a woman from occupied territories in 48 orders away from the Old City walls.

In a related context, tension and charged atmosphere increased in Al-Aqsa Mosque last month after repeated attempts of the occupation forces and settlers to abuse women within the walls of Al-Aqsa Mosque, which prompted Al-Aqsa guards and worshipers to face them and resulted in arrest campgins for worshippers. This escalation came despite a de-cline in the number of intruders into Al-Aqsa Mosque, which amounted to 738 last month compared to the number of settlers who stormed Al Aqsa last May which amounted to 1128. This is due the influx of thousands of worshipers on a daily basis during the holy month of Ramadan, which foced the occupation to reduce their numbers and close Al Mughrabi Gate after noon prayers. In a related context, 162 soldiers and an occupation officer, putting on their army military uniforms, and 57 intelligence component of the occupation stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque last month, in addition to 243 Israeli university stu-dents who broke into Al –Aqsa over the month in the form of population groups ranged between 25 to 50 students.

UNESCO: Occupation Poses Threat to Islamic Heritage of Jerusalem

UNESCO International Organization issued a resolution expressing concern as a result of the changes carried out by the occupation authorities on heritage and historical monuments in the Islamic City of Jeru-salem. According to the decision, “the Jewish State is also guilty of violating Islamic sites, due to the con-struction of the light rail just a few meters from the walls of the Old City and Israel is demand to restore of the original character of the area.” UNESCO also calls for the occupation to “cooperate with the Jordanian Ministry of Religious Endowments, according to its obligations under the provisions of Article of UNES-CO, to facilitate the arrival of Jordanian experts with appropriate equipment to deal with the Islamic sites.”

In a response to the resolution, the seventh Hebrew channel said that a state of anger prevailed the occupa-tion government in the wake of this decision and quoted Dore Gold, Director of the Foreign Ministry of the Occupation, saying that the decision “is hypocritical and unrealistic.” He said: “UNESCO has adopted a resolution completely from one side on the Old City of Jerusalem, and deliberately ignores the historical relationship between the Jewish people and the old capital city; even the rights of Christians in Jerusalem do not exist in the eyes of UNESCO.”

Israeli Taxes Raise Prices and Burden Jerusalemites

Jerusalemites are still suffering the oppression of the occupation in all aspects of their lives; their suffering is not limited to the unstable political situation in Jerusalem but the economic situation in the city is steadily declining.

Haj Wadeea Halawani, owner of a chain of shops in the Old Town, attributes the reason for the high prices of goods in Jerusalem to the occupation, which has a monopoly on varieties of goods and sells them to dealers at double price, pointing out that the Jerusalemite trader does not have a valid storage means to store large quantities of goods, which just obliges traders to buy goods from the Israelis in smaller quantities and at higher prices. Traders are also obliged to pay 6 types of taxes, a factor beyond the increases of commodity prices. Halawani said he did not notice any increace in the purchasing movement, pointing out that the goal of the people visiting the West Bank is a prayer in Al-Aqsa Mosque in particular, noting that the prices of goods in their cities are far lower than it is in Jerusalem.
