Hamas, Al-Qassam Brigades, described Saturday's surprise assault on Israel as an operation «in defense of the Al-Aqsa Mosque,» invoking a dispute around a site that is sacred to both Muslims and Jews and that is among the most deeply contested in the holy land. The mosque sits in a 35-acre site that is considered the holiest in Judaism and the third holiest in Islam. Muslims call the site — which also includes the Dome of the Rock shrine — Haram al-Sharif, or the Noble Sanctuary. According to Islamic scripture, the Prophet Muhammad traveled from Mecca to the mosque in one night to pray, and then ascended to heaven. Jews call the site the Temple Mount, because it was the location of two ancient temples that were destroyed. Israel captured East Jerusalem and the Old City, which contains the site, during the Arab-Israeli War of 1967, then annexed it, but most countries consider it to be occupied territory. The mosque is administered by the Waqf, a trust controlled by Jordan, under a status quo agreement. Israeli security forces maintain a presence on the site, and Jews and Christians can visit, but for years they were prevented from praying on the site to prevent clashes. More recently, Israeli police have quietly allowed Jews to pray there.
