Israel's far-right national security minister Itamar Ben Gvir said Monday that he would build a synagogue at Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa Mosque, a holy site in Islam also held sacred by Jews as the Temple Mount. Ben Gvir, who has repeatedly ignored the government's long-standing ban on Jews praying at the site, filmed a video statement during a recent visit to the compound in which he reiterated his opposition to any ceasefire in the Gaza war.
