In a post on his Twitter account on Friday, Nasser Kanaani denounced "Zionists' repeated desecration of the al-Aqsa Mosque (compound) and (their) shouting of racist slogans against Palestinians and Muslims."
The remarks came a day after hundreds of Israeli settlers stormed the compound in al-Quds' Old City amid heavy protection provided for them by thousands of Israeli troops.
The violation took place ahead of the so-called "flag march" by Israelis, which marks the regime's 1967 occupation of the Palestinian territory of the West Bank, including East al-Quds, Press TV reported.
Kanaani called the settlers' infringement on the compound "a reaction to the (Israeli regime's) disastrous defeat in the face of Gaza's heroic resistance."
"Is the international community still in any doubt concerning the apartheid nature of the Zionist regime," Kanaani concluded, referring to the deeply discriminatory dual legal and political system, which the regime has been practicing in favor of Israeli settlers and against Palestinians in the West Bank for decades.
