Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has sparked controversy by visiting the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, also known as Temple Mount, which is considered the holiest site in Judaism. Ben-Gvir has stated that Jews should be allowed to pray at the site, which is currently prohibited under the status quo agreement.

    1. There is no private policy of any minister on the Temple Mount - neither the Minister of National Security nor any other minister.
    2. Israel's policy on the Temple Mount has not changed; this is how it has been and this is how it will be.
    1. There is no law that permits engaging in racist discrimination against Jews at the Temple Mount or anywhere else in Israel.
