Settlers storm the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the archaeological area in Sebastia

 today, Wednesday, dozens of settlers stormed the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, from the Mughrabi Gate, while another group of settlers stormed the archaeological area in the town of Sebastia, northwest of Nablus.

The Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem said, in a brief statement, that 66 settlers, including the extremist Yehuda Glick, and 4 members of the Israeli occupation intelligence, stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque squares and wandered in, and performed Talmudic rituals.

The so-called "Temple Groups" are preparing for fierce Judaization steps during the upcoming "Passover" holiday, most notably the introduction of "Passover" offerings and their implementation inside Al-Aqsa.

In Sebastia, the head of the Sebastia Municipal Council, Muhammad Az, stated that in light of the closure announced by the Palestinian government to prevent the spread of the Corona epidemic, and the commitment to close all facilities, especially tourism in the town of Sebastia, the occupation government practices recklessness and introduces dozens of settlers to archaeological sites in the town, and this poses a danger to the Its inhabitants.

Azim added that, since the morning hours, the Israeli occupation forces closed the area, surrounded the place and mounted the roofs of tall buildings, in order to secure settler incursions into the area, which usually took place in three batches.
