Israel seeks to alter the religious identity of Jerusalem

On Holy Saturday, Israeli security forces clashed with Palestinian Christians attempting to access the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, leading to arrests. The following day, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and his supporters entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound for prayers, defying a ban on non-Muslim rituals. These events occurred after Israel’s 40-day closure of both religious sites, raising concerns about the erosion of established protections for Christian and Muslim worship in Jerusalem and the implications for Palestinian rights.
