Dozens of Jewish settlers stormed the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque today, Thursday, from the "Mughrabi Gate", with close protection from the Israeli police.
The Islamic Endowments Department in occupied Jerusalem stated, in a statement, that 90 settlers, including 5 Jewish students, stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque and performed Talmudic rituals in the "Bab Al-Rahma" area. She added that the occupation police provided protection to settlers, starting with their entry through the "Mughrabi Gate", and carrying out provocative tours in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa, and ending with their exit from "Bab Al-Silsila." It is noteworthy that the Israeli police are still imposing restrictions on Palestinian worshipers entering the mosque, searching their bags, checking their identities, and preventing dozens of young men and women from reaching the mosque. Al-Aqsa Mosque is witnessing daily (except for Friday and Saturday) incursions and violations by settlers and the Israeli police, and on two shifts in the morning and evening.
