A position assessment issued by the International Jerusalem Foundation suggests that popular resistance will be renewed with the escalation of the Israeli occupation’s attempts to impose religious control over Al-Aqsa Mosque and attempts to liquidate the identity of the blessed mosque.
The estimate - prepared by researcher specializing in Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque affairs, Ziad Abhais - indicates that the Jewish holiday season this year falls between October 3 and 24, and will be immediately followed by the first Hebrew anniversary of Operation Flood of Al-Aqsa, which will fall on Friday morning (October 25).
It is estimated that Operation Flood of Al-Aqsa was the sixth stage of Palestinian resistance in the face of the decisive phase launched by the Israeli occupation with American support with the aim of comprehensively liquidating the Palestinian cause.
