The Zionist television channel 13 aired Ben-Gvir’s notorious call on Sunday night, according to the Palestinian Sama news agency.
The Israeli media citing high-ranking Israeli officials said however that Ben-Gvir’s call is very worrying and will not be agreed to in the end.
The hawkish far-right Israeli politician, who is a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ruling coalition, is known for his anti-Muslim and anti-Palestinian statements.
Just days before the beginning of Ramadan, he proposed barring Palestinians from the occupied West Bank and other occupied territories in 1948 from praying at Al-Aqsa, Islam’s third holiest site.
Netanyahu officially did not heed to the proposal but Israel forces prevented hundreds of youths from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque on the first congregational Friday prayer of Ramadan.
The mosque has frequently been a flash-point for violence often sparked by storming of the complex by Israeli settlers under the protection of Zionist troops.
