On Thursday, Tunisian Parliament Speaker Rached Ghannouchi condemned the measures taken by the occupation authorities against Al-Aqsa Mosque, Jerusalem.

This came in a statement issued by the Ennahda Movement, following a phone conversation between Ghannouchi and Al-Aqsa Mosque cleric, Sheikh Ekrima Sabri.

Ghannouchi reiterated the position of the Tunisian state and people, rejecting the policies of Judaisation and the seizure of Palestinian lands.

The statement confirmed that the two sides called for: “Solidarity and unity in defending Al-Aqsa Mosque.”
