Israeli Minister In Provocative Visit To Al-Aqsa Mosque Site In Jerusalem

Itamar Ben-Gvir, an ultranationalist and champion of the settler movement, recorded footage at alAqsa mosque compound, also known as the Temple Mount, a site holy to Muslims and Jews.

In the shadow of the Dome of the Rock, Ben-Gvir spoke with his personal security visible behind him as well as an armed member of the Israeli border police patrolling nearby. He said he went to the compound to pray for the return of Israeli hostages held by Palestinian militants in Gaza "but without a reckless deal, without surrendering".

He added that he was "praying and working hard" for the Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resist international pressure to sign a ceasefire deal, and instead continue a military campaign in Gaza.

Israeli attacks have killed more that 38,000 people in the territory since an attack by Hamas militants last October.
