“The escalating attacks obviously show the seriousness of the conspiracy which aims at dividing and then destroying the holy mosque,” Hezbollah said in a statement.

Meanwhile, the resistance movement condemned the Arab silence on the attack, warning that this silence is considered as “unconditional surrender to the Zionists’ plots”.

“Hezbollah calls for a wide Arab and Islamic campaign in solidarity with the holy al-Aqsa Mosque,” the statement added.

Israeli forces and Palestinians clashed for the second consecutive day at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound on Monday, with Israeli troops firing stun grenades and rubber bullets which injured at least one Palestinian.

The clashes come a day after violent confrontations at the holy site on Sunday, during which witnesses said Israeli police entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque and caused damage.

Witnesses told Ma’an news agency that Israeli forces stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound shortly after dawn prayers, firing rubber-coated steel bullets and stun grenades, leading to the injury of several worshipers.

The forces then surrounded worshipers inside Al-Aqsa Mosque and closed its doors with “chains and bars” before firing rubber-coated bullets inside the holy site, witnesses said.
