Occupied Jerusalem: Settlers stormed the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem on Thursday, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces.

According to the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA), the Jerusalem Governorate said that a number of settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque, conducted provocative tours of its courtyards, and performed Talmudic rituals, under the protection of the occupation forces.

Al-Aqsa Mosque is subjected to repeated incursions by settlers, under the protection of the occupation forces, which constitutes a dangerous escalation and a violation of the sanctity of the mosque.
