Dozens of Jewish settlers stormed the al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem on Tuesday morning under heavy police protection.
According to the Islamic Endowments Authority the settlers forced their way into the Mosque in different groups through its Maghariba Gate and toured its courtyards.
During their tours at the Islamic holy site the settlers received lectures from rabbis about the alleged temple mount and a number of them provocatively performed Talmudic prayers.
Meanwhile the Israeli police imposed movement restrictions on Muslim worshipers at the al-Aqsa Mosque’s entrances and gates.
The al-Aqsa Mosque is exposed to daily desecration by Jewish settlers and police forces in the morning and the afternoon except on Fridays and Saturdays.
