Israeli authorities have revoked entry permits for roughly 30 senior employees of the Waqf—the Jordanian-appointed Islamic Endowment body that administers Al-Aqsa Mosque—effective June 1, 2026. The cancellations target long-serving staff including the Waqf's senior treasurer and teachers linked to the Palestinian Authority, with Palestinian officials characterizing the measure as part of a broader effort to consolidate Israeli control and reduce Palestinian administrative presence at the holy site.
