Dozens of Israeli settlers on Wednesday morning stormed holy al-Aqsa Mosque sparking tension at and around the site.
Media chief at Jerusalem’s Awqaf Department Firas al-Dabs said over 36 Israeli settlers escorted by heavily-armed policemen broke into al-Aqsa via the Maghareba Gate.
An Israeli cop came down heavily on a Muslim guard at al-Aqsa and threatened to send him to jail in case he does not keep a 30-meter distance from the Israeli settlers.
