At least 30,000 Palestinian worshipers performed Friday prayer at the Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem, despite Israeli restrictions.
According to the Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem, around 30,000 Muslims performed the Friday prayer at the holy shrine.
The Israeli forces stormed Aqsa during the Friday sermon, preventing many worshipers from entering the holy shrine. A Palestinian boy was detained during the events.
The Israeli police also blocked several roads leading to the Old City of Jerusalem and hindered the movement of Palestinian citizens.
Since the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, the Israeli authorities have imposed more restrictions on West Bankers’ entry to the Aqsa Mosque compound.
Earlier Friday, thousands of Jerusalemites performed the Fajr prayer at the Aqsa Mosque despite the Israeli security restrictions at its gates.
