Palestinians face growing bans from Al-Aqsa as Israel tightens control

Israeli authorities have issued over 1,000 exclusion orders barring Palestinians from Al-Aqsa Mosque and East Jerusalem's Old City since early 2026. Sheikh Ekrima Sabri, head of the Higher Islamic Council, received his fifth ban, extending his exclusion until April 2027. These restrictions coincide with increased access for Jewish religious activists at the site, which Palestinians describe as a campaign to diminish their presence.
