The increase in numbers inside Al-Aqsa Mosque is considered a major security challenge. Due to the inability of the occupation police to control the movement of the public, especially in cases of security unrest such as the one witnessed by the mosque during Ramadan in 2021.
The preparations made by the Israeli security services this year to deal with this holy month are considered the most sensitive since the Israeli occupation of the mosque in 1967. Israel appears to have begun working on practical preparation for this stage early by indicating that there are disagreements between the army and the police.
