Thank you Foreign Minister @A_Schallenberg for your friendship and partnership as we work together to strengthen ties between Israel and Austria. 🇮🇱 🇦🇹
Good to close my trip to the region with seeing my friend @YairLapid again in #TelAviv. In-depth talk about the tense situation in #Jerusalem and my meetings with Jordanian and Palestinian colleagues in the last two days.
1/5 The UNIFIL statement issued last night regarding the rocket fire from southern Lebanon by terrorist groups is unfortunate and disappointing.
The statement raises doubts about the force's ability to act in accordance with its mandate.
The Commander of the IDF Southern Command, MG Eliezer Toledano, joined Bedouin soldiers and community leaders last night for an Iftar feast—the breaking of the daily #Ramadan fast.
We wish all our Muslim soldiers Ramadan Kareem!
Congratulations to my good friend @EmmanuelMacron on being reelected as President of France.
President Macron is an important leader of the global center and a true friend of Israel. We’ll continue to work together to strengthen cooperation between our countries. 🇮🇱 🇫🇷
Israel is committed to the Status Quo on the Temple Mount.
Despite provocations by terrorist organizations, despite attempts to stoke violence: we have done and continue to do everything to enable peaceful prayer.

Prime Minister Naftali Bennett spoke with @UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres this evening.
PM Bennett: "The international community must not serve the agenda of the terrorist organizations."
Every Muslim in the world must see this video.
This is what truly happened on the Temple Mount this morning: a small group of Islamic extremists tried to take over Al-Aqsa Mosque. They want to forcibly remove the moderates who simply want to observe Ramadan and pray in peace.
Israel is committed to ensuring freedom of worship for all and will not let a handful of violent rioters sabotage peaceful prayers on the Temple Mount for everyone.
Order of events in #AlAqsa Mosque over the last few days:
1) #Palestinian thugs disrupt the peace in the mosque, throw rocks, fire fireworks from inside it & endanger the holy site.
2) Police disperses them.
3) Calm is restored & thousands of Muslims pray in peace for Ramadan.
This morning a small number of violent rioters again desecrated Al-Aqsa Mosque, throwing stones and Molotov Cocktails from inside the mosque. The violence endangers worshipers attempting to enter the mosque, and impeded police efforts to ensure freedom of worship at the site.
