The Israeli Foreign Ministry announced on X that an Iranian missile impacted a location several hundred meters from Jerusalem’s Old City, the Western Wall, Al-Aqsa Mosque, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. This action represents the Iranian regime’s ongoing aggression towards Israel’s capital. Protecting human lives and the safety of worshippers is the immediate priority.
Consequently, prayer at all holy sites has been temporarily suspended, as stated in a Ministry announcement. The situation remains highly sensitive and concerning. The Israeli Ministry emphasized the need to safeguard lives and the security of those who gather to worship.
Further escalating the tension, Iranian forces are firing missiles towards Jerusalem. This development follows prior threats regarding the Strait of Hormuz, where oil tankers are currently burning. The Iranian regime has declared it will not permit a single liter of oil to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
The incident underscores the volatile geopolitical climate and the potential for further escalation in the region. The Ministry continues to monitor the situation closely and prioritize the well-being of its citizens and the protection of sacred places.
