The Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, has hailed UNESCO’s resolution on Alqsa Mosque Compound, including the Buraq Wall, which considered it of a Muslim ownership, as ‘a political victory for the Palestinian cause.’
Spokesperson for the Hamas movement Sami Abu Zuhri described the resolution in a press statement he issued on Friday as, “a political victory for the Palestinian cause and it strengthens our religious and national right to Al-Aqsa Mosque, and it debunks the Israeli narrative, which was based on the claimed Temple Mount.”
