They raided the house on Tuesday, summoning him to a center in East al-Quds for interrogation, Al-Quds al-Arabi reported. 

The move is considered to be part of the attempts by the Zionists to put pressure on Palestinian political and religious figures to undermine their role in defending Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Last month, Sheikh Sabri was detained by Zionist forces for several hours and ordered to be deported from the mosque.

He was arrested for mourning and eulogizing martyred Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh.

The 85-year-old preacher had previously been detained by Israeli regime forces and was barred from entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque for months.
