Dozens of Israeli settlers escorted by police troops broke into holy al-Aqsa Mosque—the third holiest site in Islam—on Thursday morning.
Member of al-Aqsa supervision personnel told the PIC that Israeli settler hordes stormed the site via al-Maghareba Gate under a heavy police shield.
63 Israeli fanatic settlers and 98 religious learners accompanied by Jewish guides defiled the site and attended presentations on the history of the alleged temple mount during the morning break-in shift.
Over recent weeks Israel’s alleged temple mount organizations stepped up calls for mass break-ins at al-Aqsa in an attempt to impose a new fait accompli at the site.
