Occupied Jerusalem (QNN)- Large numbers of Palestinian worshipers attended at dawn on Friday the Al-Fajr prayers at Al-Aqsa Mosque in the occupied city of Jerusalem, pledging to protect the holy site from Israeli occupation violations.
Local sources reported that Palestinian worshipers performed the Al-Fajr prayer at the mosque to support the “Great Fajr” campaign to pray at the holy sites despite Israel’s strict restrictions.

Every Friday, thousands of Palestinians stream to the Al-Aqsa mosque, the world’s third-holiest site for Muslims. They recite the Holy Quran before performing the Al-Fajr prayer at dawn and the Friday prayers at noon.
The “Great Fajr” campaign was launched for the first time in 2020 and started from the fourth holiest place in the Islamic world, Hebron’s Ibrahimi Mosque, to stand against Israeli occupation’s violations against the mosque and its attempt to Judaize it, including the repeated raids by colonial Israeli settlers.
There have also been calls by Palestinian officials for Muslim and Palestinian worshipers to perform prayers at the Al-Aqsa mosque at all times amid aggressive Israeli attacks committed against the mosque.
A large number of Israeli police officers have deployed in the streets of the city with the coming of the Jewish New Year holiday which will start at sunset on Friday.
Late last night, Israeli settlers broke into the al-Buraq wall, the western portion of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, marking the Jewish holiday.
