At the same time, hundreds of worshipers attended the Friday prayers at the two protest tents; the Red Cross compound where the Palestinian lawmakers threatened with expulsion are holding a sit-in for over five months and the Bustan protest tent in Silwan, the Jerusalem suburb threatened with demolition and expulsion of its residents.

The Imams said that the Aqsa Mosque is an Islamic holy place and that the Jerusalem residents will defend it at any cost. The called for national unity for the sake of God, the Aqsa Mosque and Jerusalem which is subject to occupation accelerated Judaization and the residents of which stand threatened with expulsion.

Israeli official: Collapse of Aqsa Mosque is imminent

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, - Col. Yoram Lev-Ran, the Commander of the Jerusalem district of the Home Front Command, has warned that a disaster might befall the holy Aqsa Mosque and that the old Marwani Mosque might collapse soon.

He told an Israeli weekly published on Friday that a collapse would happen, but the only “question is when? And how many will be killed and injured?”

Lev-Ran said that an emergency plan is always present when prayers in Ramadan are offered, adding the Home Front Command and the police are always on the alert.

Observers believe that Lev-Ran’s statement is only a test balloon to check the Arab reaction, adding that the demolition of the Aqsa was taken a while ago by the Israeli decision makers but was awaiting the proper time for implementation.

Land caved in near the Aqsa Mosque and in occupied Jerusalem as a result of the Israeli excavations and tunnels dug underneath the holy site. - palestine-info.co.uk
