As Israel begins lifting the restrictions put in place during the most recent lockdown, which included a ban on mass public prayers on the Temple Mount, a new campaign is urging Muslims to visit the holy site en masse.

The Al-Aqsa Association, which is devoted to helping bring Muslims to the Temple Mount for prayers, published a message that read, "After 40 days of lockdown, the convoys to Al Aqsa will begin again."
In a message published overnight between Saturday and Sunday, Sheikh Ikrama Sabri put out a message "calling on the Palestinian people to go to the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque tomorrow [Sunday], rebuild its squares, and tour the city's markets to support the people after the destructive siege."
Sabri is known for his anti-Israel stance and his open support for terrorism. On Oct. 8, 2020, he said, "The Zionists' acts of slaughter at the Temple Mount continue, and we have no option other than to resist and protect the mosque with all our might."
