RNA – “These crimes that are being committed in occupied Palestine will lead to the shortening of the Zionist regime’s (Israel) life,” Hujjat al-Islam Kazem Seddiqi said in an address to worshipers during the weekly Friday Prayers in the Iranian capital, Tehran.
The Iranian cleric also criticized the United Nations’ inaction over the Israeli regime’s aggression against the al-Aqsa Mosque.
“These criminals (Israelis) are not confined by any boundaries and are not even bound by their own laws; and at the same time, the United Nations shows no reaction, either,” Hujjat al-Islam Seddiqi said, according to Press TV.
Israeli settlers and troopers have been attacking worshipers at the site of the al-Aqsa Mosque since September 13, following the deployment of Israeli forces to the area for the Jewish Rosh Hashanah New Year holiday.
Israel has imposed restrictions on entries into the mosque compound since August 26.
The Islamic Republic has officially called for the condemnation of the Israeli raids on the mosque by countries and world bodies.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham said on September 15 that all world countries, particularly Muslim states, and international bodies, especially the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the UN, are expected to show immediate reaction to the Israeli crimes.
