Groups of Jewish settlers defiled the Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem under the protection of Israeli police on Tuesday morning.
According to local sources 104 settlers entered the holy Islamic site through al-Maghariba gate provocatively toured its courtyards and performed Talmudic rituals in its eastern area.
The Aqsa Mosque is exposed to daily desecration by Jewish settlers and police forces in the morning and the afternoon except on Fridays and Saturdays.
During the presence of settlers inside the Mosque compound entry restrictions are imposed on Muslim worshipers at the entrances leading to the Mosque and their IDs are seized until they leave the holy place.
