The Israeli occupation forces stormed on Tuesday the Dome of the Rock at Jerusalem’s al-Aqsa Mosque and prevented staff from carrying out maintenance works.
Media chief at the Islamic Awqaf Department Firas al-Dabes said cleansing and maintenance works have been carried out at the Dome of the Rock at the same time as Israeli police broke into the site and cracked down on maintenance personnel on claims that chemical products were sprayed on archeological monuments.
An altercation burst out between the director of the Awqaf Department Azzam al-Khatib and members of al-Aqsa supervision staff.
