Scores of Jewish extremist settlers on Tuesday stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque/ al-Haram al-Sharif compound in occupied East Jerusalem, according to an official Palestinian source.
The General Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem said in a statement that the settlers carried out today’s raids through al-Magharebah Gate under the heavy protection of Israeli police, who restricted Muslim worshippers’ access to the mosque.
“The settlers toured the mosque’s yards, and provocatively performed their Talmudic rituals,” it added.
