TEHRAN- The spokesperson for Iran's foreign ministry, has issued a warning regarding the Israeli regime's intentions to undermine the Al-Aqsa Mosque. 

On Tuesday, Nasser Kanaani expressed on the X platform that the cabinet of the Zionist regime is actively pursuing its sacrilegious agenda against the Al-Aqsa Mosque. 

He emphasized that the Israeli authorities persist in their plans to build a synagogue in place of the Al-Aqsa Mosque. 

“The Islamic Republic of Iran firmly denounces these recent remarks and actions, cautioning against any infringement upon the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the crossing of the Islamic Ummah's boundaries by the Zionists,” he added.

“In light of the awakening of global conscience and widespread condemnation of Zionist actions, Muslims and advocates for freedom around the world are increasingly rallying in support of Palestine, the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and the accountability of Zionist offenders,” Kanaani concluded.

The Al-Aqsa Mosque, situated on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, holds significant importance in Islam. It has also become a focal point of tension between Israelis and Palestinians, as the Temple Mount is the historical location of the ancient Jewish Temple. 

Israeli regime asserts its sovereignty over the Temple Mount, whereas Palestinians assert their claim over Al-Aqsa and its vicinity. This ongoing dispute has frequently resulted in violent confrontations between Muslims and Jews over the centuries.

After the Al-Aqsa Storm operation, most Palestinians view Israel's actions on the site, such as allowing Jewish prayer and visits to the site, as attempts to gradually assert control over the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
