Stormy reactions in the Arab world to Itamar Ben Gabir's ascension to the Temple Mount:
Jordan issued a statement that they strongly condemn Ben Gabir's "invasion" of the compound.
Hamas said that "this is blatant aggression and a desperate attempt that will not change the history and Islamic identity of Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. This invasion is criminal behavior that reveals the state of fear in which the leaders of the occupation are. Our campaign against the Zionist enemy is by all means and in all arenas of the homeland and with our people will continue the resistance until the occupation disappears."
