Deportations from Al-Aqsa and summonses prior to deportation decisions
The occupation authorities continued their campaign of raids and the delivery of summonses to Jerusalemites as the Jewish holiday season approaches.
The summonses stated that the purpose was "a hearing before considering restricting your access to the Temple Mount." The occupation intelligence service used the term "Temple Mount" in the summons notices as a substitute for Al-Aqsa Mosque.
This evening, the intelligence service delivered to the released prisoner, Yaqoub Abu Asab, a decision banning him from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque for a week, until September 14, 2025. Last Thursday, Abu Asab received a summons to report to the Al-Qishla police station on Saturday evening to attend a hearing regarding his ban from Al-Aqsa. He received the ban order tonight, which required him to return to the station immediately after the expiration of the period, pending the possibility of renewal for additional periods that could extend for months.
It is worth noting that Abu Asab was released in the middle of last month after spending six months in administrative detention.
In the same context, intelligence forces raided the home of freed prisoner Sheikh Najeh Bkeirat in the village of Sur Baher this evening, and handed him and his son Daoud summonses for investigation tomorrow, Sunday, at the Al-Qishla police station.
Over the past few hours, Israeli intelligence raided a number of homes belonging to Jerusalemites in various neighborhoods of the city and handed summonses for interrogation to their residents, most of whom were former prisoners.
The Wadi Hilweh Information Center in Jerusalem explained that Israeli intelligence handed two young men orders banning them from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque for a week (with the possibility of renewal).
These summonses and orders to ban them from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque coincide with the approach of the longest Jewish holiday season, which includes Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot. These holidays begin at the end of this month and continue until the middle of next month.
