The Islamic Waqf is taking advantage of the closure of the Temple Mount to worshipers due to the coronavirus to conduct illegal digs.

The Temple Mount Sifting project began 20 years ago when the Islamic Waqf illegally removed 9,000 tons of soil from the Jewish Temple Mount, which contained a plethora of artifacts spanning thousands of years.

Activists advocating Israeli rights on the Temple Mount held an emergency meeting on Sunday evening to discuss the Muslim Waqf’s recent illegal takeover of the Golden Gate compound.
