MOSCOW, April 11 – RIA Novosti. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, on the recommendation of law enforcement, has closed the Temple Mount to Jews and tourists until the end of Ramadan, the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office said on Twitter. “On the unanimous recommendation of the Minister of Defense, the Chief of the General Staff, the head of the Shin Bet and the Inspector General of Police, it was decided to ban Jews and tourists from visiting the Temple Mount until the end of Ramadan,” the agency said in a statement. On Saturday evening, Israeli President Yitzhak Herzog assured Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan by phone that the Jewish state was committed to maintaining the status quo around the Temple Mount shrines in Jerusalem. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly stated his commitment to maintaining the status quo. Over the past week, there have been repeated clashes between Palestinians and Israeli police on the Temple Mount. On Wednesday evening, around 350 Palestinians were detained there, who barricaded themselves in the mosque and resisted the police. Local media say events on the Temple Mount during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan prompted the recent rocket attacks on Israel from Lebanon and the Gaza Strip, and also led to a series of terrorist attacks on Israelis. The Temple Mount is located east of the Old City. Here is the First, then the Second Temple in Jerusalem. Here, according to Jewish tradition, the Third Temple will stand. Currently, two particularly revered Muslim shrines are located on the mountain – the Al-Aqsa Mosques and the Dome of the Rock.
