Jerusalem:Occupied Jerusalem Israeli settlers entered the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque on Tuesday, with protection from Israeli occupation forces.

According to Qatar News Agency, the Jerusalem Governorate reported that dozens of settlers accessed the mosque’s courtyards via the Moroccan Gate. During their visit, the settlers performed Talmudic rituals and engaged in “epic prostration” in the eastern part of the compound.

The Israeli occupation forces have reportedly increased security measures around Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Old City. Despite these restrictions, settlers continue to enter the compound and conduct religious rituals openly.
