Ramadan

The Jerusalem Post Podcast with Tamar Uriel-Beeri and Sarah Ben-Nun.

"This period [Ramadan] has a unique religious meaning in the Muslim world. Muslim terrorist organizations see Ramadan as an opportunity to carry out attacks and acts of violence," the statement read.

Arieh Amit, a former high-ranking police officer, discussed how the Israel Police can manage the issue of Ramadan and the Temple Mount, highlighting concerns over Minister Ben-Gvir's conduct.

Jerusalem, declared Sir Mark Sykes, is “inflammable ground” and “a careless word or gesture might set half a continent aflame.”

During the first week of Ramadan, no new limitations would be placed, and the number of east Jerusalem and West Bank Muslims allowed into the Temple Mount will remain the same as previous years.

The PIJ comments are also linked to those made by Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, who has called for escalation during Ramadan. 

When false accusations are inevitably made against Israel during Ramadan this year, how will the international media handle it?

We need to say with one voice that this evil Hamas group will no longer attack Jews on Jewish holidays and will no longer ruin the lives of Muslims in the region by continuously bringing war.

The IDF and Shin Bet said that the release was done because the prisons were running out of room.
