The United States continues to urge Israel to facilitate access to Temple Mount for peaceful worshippers during Ramadan, U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller told reporters on Wednesday.
"We have urged them that worshippers should have access to Al Aqsa during Ramadan, and the point that we have made clear to them is ... it's not just the right thing to do, it's not just a matter of granting people religious freedom that they deserve and to which they have a right, but it's also a matter that directly is important to Israel's security," Miller said.
