Since Friday July 14th, Palestinians have been expressing unity and solidarity in opposing Israel’s decisions to impose new security measures on worshippers entering Al-Aqsa mosque, changing the status quo, agreed upon for the site since 1967. On Thursday 27th, both Kairos Palestine and Sabeel Ecumenical Liberation Theology Center led a delegation of Palestinian Church and community leaders to Al Aqsa mosque to protest together, as Palestinians, the Israeli occupation restrictions.
The delegation was greeted by our Muslim brothers and sisters with chants of Palestinian unity and hugs. The crowds refused to be silent, and the stones of the Jerusalem Churches and Mosques together cried out for justice and freedom.
