Groups of Jewish settlers stormed on Thursday morning al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem under heavy police protection.

During their tours at the Islamic holy site the settlers provocatively performed Talmudic prayers.

This came as Palestinian activists call for intensifying Palestinian presence at al-Aqsa Mosque on Friday in face of the Israeli Jaudaization attempts.

Al-Aqsa preacher Sheikh Ikrema Sabri hailed the calls and called for mass participation in the initiative.

The Aqsa Mosque is exposed to daily desecration by Jewish settlers and police forces in the morning and the afternoon except on Fridays and Saturdays.

During the presence of settlers inside the Mosque compound entry restrictions are imposed on Muslim worshipers at the entrances leading to the Mosque and their IDs could be seized until they leave the holy place.
