Al-Quds Day Celebrated at the Dome of the Rock

Millions of Muslims around the world celebrated International Quds Day, the final Friday of Ramadan, which calls for the “liberation” of Jerusalem. Footage from the Dome of the Rock, a shrine on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem’s Old City, shows attendees waving Palestinian and Hamas flags while chanting and praying.

Many Arab countries mark the day with rallies and marches. According to the Jerusalem Post, thousands also attend an “anti-Israel” event in Iran that falls on the last Friday of Ramadan. Ayatollah Khomeini, the late Iranian spiritual leader, declared Al-Quds an international day of struggle against Israel. Credit: Twitter/365daysofyasmyn
