Occupied Jerusalem (QNN)- Extremist Israeli settlers earlier on Wednesday broke into the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque in the occupied city of Jerusalem.
For the second day in a row, over 130 extremist Israeli settlers broke into the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque today, provoking Palestinian worshipers by performing Talmudic prayers to mark the so-called Jewish New Year, under the occupation forces protection.

Several groups of Israeli fanatics and terrorist organizations had called for massive raids into the holy mosque from Sunday to Thursday to mark the so-called Jewish New Year.
The settlers today broke into the courtyards of the holy site by entering through the Damascus Gate- which Palestinians call Bab al-Amoud Gate.
Israeli occupation authorities allow settler incursions to the mosque since 2003 under the forces protection, despite repeated objections and warnings by the Palestinian religious authorities as the visits provoke worshippers of the mosque.
Israeli forces always facilitate and protect the settlers breaking into the holy site while preventing Palestinian worshipers from entering it, assaulting and detaining them.
Al-Aqsa Mosque is the third holiest site in Islam which located in occupied Jerusalem.
