Israel planning construction of new tunnel under Aqsa

Zionist regime has plenned to build a new tunnel under the Aqsa Mosque that would allow Zionsts to enter the holy site without having to pass through its gates, Sheikh Ali Abu Sheikha, the chairman of the Aqsa Foundation catering for Islamic holy shrines in Palestine, warned.

 

He said in a press release that funds had been earmarked for starting the construction and that the new scheme plans to divide the Islamic holy site between Muslims and Jews.

 

He appealed to the Arab and Muslim countries to step in and halt digging. Abu Sheikha also asked PA chief Mahmoud Abbas to adopt a firm stand towards any project that aims at dividing the holy site.

 

Abu Sheikh underlined Zionist regime premier Ehud Olmert was personally supervising the project that was endorsed after his return form the Annapolis meeting.
