Dozens of Jewish settlers stormed the courtyards of the holy Al-Aqsa Mosque on Wednesday morning from the Maghareba Gate.
The Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem stated that 115 settlers stormed the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and carried out provocative tours under heavy police protection.
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.
Calls continue for all Muslims in 1948 occupied Palestine and the people of Jerusalem to intensify their presence at Al-Aqsa Mosque to repel the Jewish settler’ incursions.
