2024-08-24 Hamas urges anger and condemnation over Quran burning by Israeli soldiers Al Jazeera Arabic had aired footage, obtained from the cameras of Israeli soldiers, showing them ripping up pages from the Muslim holy book and burning them at the Bani Saleh Mosque in northern Gaza.
The channel also published a video from an Israeli drone showing the bombing of the historic Grand Mosque in Khan Younis. According to the Gaza Government Media Office, Israel has completely destroyed 610 mosques and three churches over the past 10 months in Gaza.
On Saturday, Hamas called on “the free people of the world” to act to defend Muslim and Christian holy sites in Palestine and end “the war of extermination” against the Gaza Strip. The Israeli offensive has killed more than 40,200 Palestinians and turned large parts of the besieged Palestinian territory into rubble.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations, a US advocacy group, said the desecration of Quran copies and targeting of mosques in Gaza prove that Israel’s “war on the Palestinian people in Gaza is also a war on Islam itself”. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/hamas-urges-anger-and-condemnation-over-quran-burning-by-israeli-soldiers/ar-AA1pn5Cz?
