AMMAN — A Hebrew newspaper reported on Tuesday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to halt settler incursions into the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex from Wednesday through the end of the holy month of Ramadan, according to Amad. Israeli police announced that, on the recommendation of Police Commissioner Yaakov Shabtai — and contrary to the position of IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant, and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir — the "political leadership" decided that Jewish storming of Al-Aqsa would be prohibited from Wednesday through the end of Ramadan. Police officials confirmed that the decision was made by Netanyahu, who chose to adopt a policy similar to one implemented in previous years, closing the complex to Jews during the last 10 days of Ramadan.
