This morning I woke up and saw the news about Al-Aqsa, about the Israeli forces that came through during Jummah prayer, while people were praying. This happened during the month of Ramadan, which is the holiest month of the year for Muslim people, during Jummah prayer, which is the holiest prayer in the week. Seeing the images of the IDF coming through, with guns and shields, while people are literally on their knees in prayer, is heartbreaking and devastating. It’s also not new: Al-Aqsa, which is one of the most important mosques and holy sites in Islam, is targeted every year, every Ramadan.
