Lapid and Deri agree to ban Jews from climbing Temple Mount

Leading Western countries have expressed “outrage” over Itamar Ben-Gvir's decision to overturn the status quo on the Temple Mount, allowing Jews to pray at the site of the destroyed Second Temple. Washington, Paris, the EU and the UN have called the move a “provocation.”

However, in Israel, apart from the Otzma Yehudit party, no one supports this idea, including the Prime Minister himself.

Israeli public opinion remained unanimous. The left, the center, the religious parties – all opposed Ben-Gvir's actions.

Even opposition leaders and religious politicians have decided to unite to propose a bill to ban Jews from ascending the Temple Mount, citing the rabbi's halachic rulings.

After years of disagreement, Yair Lapid and Aryeh Deri, leaders of the opposition and the Orthodox Shas party, have decided to work together. Together with the Yesh Atid party, they plan to introduce a bill to prohibit Jews from accessing the Temple Mount.

Activists also accuse Ben-Gvir of inciting hatred among the people, especially on the fast day of the 9th of Av.
