Dozens of settlers defile Al-Aqsa Mosque

Monday 14-June-2021

Jewish settlers stormed on Monday the courtyards of the holy Al-Aqsa Mosque under Israeli police protection.

The Islamic Endowments Department in Occupied Jerusalem reported that 80 settlers broke into the Al-Aqsa from the Magharabi Gate in groups and carried out provocative tours.

Eyewitnesses said that the groups of settlers received explanations about the alleged temple.

Meanwhile the occupation police were deployed in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque and continued to impose strict security measures on Jerusalemites and the residents of the 1948 occupied lands wishing to enter the holy Islamic site.

This incursion coincides with the reinforcement of the Israeli police’s presence in Occupied Jerusalem one day before the beginning of the provocative flags march.

Dozens of Jewish settlers resumed on Sunday morning their forced entry and tours of the courtyards of the holy Al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem under Israeli police protection.

Jerusalemite sources reported that dozens of settlers including students of extremist religious institutes defiled the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in the morning period of the daily incursions.

The settlers performed provocative religious and Talmudic rituals while the Israeli police continued to evacuate the eastern area of the Mosque and the al-Rahma Gate prayer hall during the settlers’ incursions.

The settler incursions are part of periodic tours aiming to change the fait accompli in the Holy City and Al-Aqsa Mosque.

During the evening incursions the Israeli police provided the settlers an additional half hour between 12:30 and 2:00 instead of 1:30.

The Temple groups had urged the Israeli occupation authorities to tighten their grip over Jerusalemites harass them and banish them from Jerusalem. They pointed out the necessity of exploiting the unlimited American support for Israel and push towards more Judaization projects.

Calls continue for all Muslims in 1948 Occupied Palestine and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to intensify their presence at Al-Aqsa Mosque to repel the Jewish settlers’ incursions.
