Dozens of settlers, led by officers from the occupation intelligence, stormed the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, while the occupation forces attacked worshipers and kept them away from the path of the settlers´ incursions.
The occupation forces severely beat and arrested three young men at Al-Silsa Gate, one of the gates of Al-Aqsa.
One of the guards of Al-Aqsa Mosque said that Israeli special forces arrested three young men from the Old City of Jerusalem after beating and pushing them while they were at the al-Silsilah Gate. Among them, Ibrahim Othman Rizk was known.
The Islamic Endowment in Jerusalem said that 55 Israelis stormed the mosque in the morning under the pretext of non-Muslim visits - tourism under the protection of the police and special forces.
The Islamic Endowments added that the second raid, after the noon prayer, was attended by 29 settlers and 87 Israelis, under the pretext of non-Muslim tourism.
Dozens of settlers made provocative tours of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and received explanations about the “alleged temple”, while it was noted that they collectively read the Torah in the mosque’s courtyard, and performed Tamloud rituals in front of the Bab al-Rahma chapel and the Dome of the Rock before leaving the squares from the side of Bab al-Silsila.
The occupation police tightened its restrictions and restrictions on worshipers arriving at Al-Aqsa Mosque through the Majlis Gate, and detained their personal identities at the external gates.
The chapels and corridors of Al-Aqsa witnessed the presence of worshipers from the people of Jerusalem and inside, despite the strict restrictions of the occupation.
The Al-Aqsa Mosque is exposed daily to a series of incursions and violations by settlers, interspersed with provocations against Palestinian worshipers, arrests and deportations from the mosque.
