Hordes of Israeli settlers on Wednesday morning stormed al-Aqsa Mosque under the protection of large police forces.
Jerusalem’s Islamic Awqaf Department said that the Israeli police escorted 28 settlers as they roamed the Mosque and performed Talmudic rituals early in the morning.
It added that two Israeli intelligence officers as well as 66 government officials stormed the Mosque during the same period.
The Israeli police allow Jewish settlers to carry out daily incursions into al-Aqsa Mosque except on Fridays and Saturdays. The break-ins are usually conducted in two rounds: in the morning and afternoon.
