Dozens of Jewish settlers forced their way into the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem on Tuesday.
Eyewitnesses confirmed that a group of settlers broke into the holy Islamic site through its Al-Magharba Gate southwest of the Mosque guarded by Israeli police.
Jewish settlers storm Al-Aqsa Mosque every day in the morning and afternoon except on Fridays and Saturdays and embark on provocative acts in defiance of Muslim worshipers. Al-Aqsa Mosque is the world’s third-holiest site for Muslims.
Israel occupied East Jerusalem where Al-Aqsa Mosque is located during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war. It annexed the entire city in 1980 a move never recognized by the international community.
