Dozens of Israeli settlers on Tuesday morning broke into al-Aqsa Mosque amid heavy police presence and tight restrictions on Palestinian worshipers.
Jerusalem’s Islamic Awqaf Department said that the Israeli police allowed 123 Jewish settlers to storm al-Aqsa Mosque in the morning.
The settlers performed Talmudic rituals and roamed al-Aqsa courtyards while receiving presentations on the alleged “Temple Mount”.
Meanwhile the Israeli police forces tightened entry restrictions on Palestinian worshipers.
Two worshipers named Areen al-Za’anin and Mohammed Amara were handed orders banning them from entering al-Aqsa Mosque for six months and four months respectively.
