A spokesperson for Palestine accuses Israel of encouraging the cycle of violence.

Palestinian Presidential Spokesman Nabil Abu Rudeineh condemned the spiral of Israeli violence against the Palestinian people, accusing the Israeli far-right government of fueling the conflict. He urged regional and international parties to intervene, curb and press the government of extremism in Israel to stop the escalating attacks. He also condemned the Israeli raid on the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied Jerusalem, and the actions of four Israeli settlers on Sunday. Sheikh Mohammad Hussein, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and Palestine, condemned the eviction of worshipers as a "severely dangerous attack on the sentiments and beliefs of Muslims." He added that the Israeli escalation is aimed at achieving the interests of extremist settler groups that seek a religious war in the region.
