According to sources in the Ministry of Islamic Endowments in occupied Jerusalem, 52 Israeli settlers stormed the courtyards of the Holy Al-Aqsa Mosque on Thursday morning, following the opening of the "Door of the Moroccans" at 7:30 a.m.
According to our correspondent, the occupation police provided protection to dozens of settlers during the storming of al-Aqsa courtyards in the form of groups on the one hand and organizing tours and receiving explanations about the alleged structure.
This is the first round of settler incursions for the day, with incursions usually taking place on two periods, morning and evening, while the occupation authorities continue to impose further emphasis and harassment on Palestinian worshippers.
Meanwhile, israeli forces arrested a preacher of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Sheikh Bilal Mwasi, from his home in The West Bank, inside the occupied Palestinian territories.
This comes as the occupying forces have tightened security measures throughout the Holy City, due to the visit of presidents and international officials today.
