Thousands of Palestinians worshipers reached al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem and performed Friday prayer in its courtyards amid strict Israeli measures.
Jerusalemite sources said that 60000 Muslim worshipers performed Friday prayer at al-Aqsa Mosque.
Since the early hours the Israeli police forces were deployed in the streets of Jerusalem and prevented Palestinians from the West Bank from accessing the Mosque to perform prayers. Nevertheless several thousands of them managed to reach the holy site.
Earlier in the morning thousands performed dawn prayer at the holy site despite Israeli restrictions.
