Over 100 Israeli settlers break into Al-Aqsa Mosque

Occupied Jerusalem (QNN)- Dozens Israeli settlers broke into the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in the occupied Jerusalem earlier on Monday.

Under the occupation forces protection, over 100 Israeli settlers broke into the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque during the morning break-in session.

The settlers entered through the Damascus Gate- which Palestinians call Bab al-Amoud Gate- while provoking Palestinian worshipers in the mosque’s courtyards by performing Talmudic prayers.

Israeli occupation intelligence officers along with the settlers also stormed the chapel of the Dome of the Rock beside the Al-Aqsa mosque in the Haram al-Sharif, which Israelis called the “Temple Mount”.

The Israeli forces always facilitate the settlers’ storm to the courtyards of the mosque while preventing Palestinians from praying.

The Israeli forces attack and assault Palestinian worhipers at the courtyards of the Mosque with sound grenades, rubber bullets and pepper gas.

The forces also station at the gates of the mosque and detain dozens of Palestinian young men and boys, after assaulting them.

Israeli occupation authorities allow settler incursions to the mosque since 2003, despite repeated objections and warnings by the Palestinian religious authorities as the visits provoke worshippers of the mosque.

Al-Aqsa Mosque is the third holiest site in Islam which located in occupied Jerusalem.
