Palestinian minister of religious affairs Yousef Ad’eis has said that there no safe places of worship for the Palestinians in light of the violations the Islamic and Christian sites are exposed to on a daily basis by Israel and its settlers.

In press remarks on Monday, Ad’eis strongly denounced settlers’ writing of racist slurs on the walls of a Mosque in Deir Dibwan town in Ramallah, describing what happened as “a provocative and racist act and part of Israel’s ongoing crimes against the Palestinian holy sites.”

He stressed that the protection of the Palestinian holy sites needs support from the peoples of the Arab and Islamic worlds and all honorable people around the world.
