OCCUPIED JERUSALEM (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Scores of extremist Jewish settlers desecrated the Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem on Thursday morning and later in the afternoon, amid tight restrictions on the entry of Muslim worshipers to the holy site.
According to local sources, at least 543 settlers entered the Mosque through its Maghariba Gate in the morning and provocatively toured its courtyards under police protection.
During their tours at the Islamic holy site, the settlers received lectures from rabbis about the alleged temple mount and a number of them provocatively performed Talmudic prayers.
Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation police imposed movement and entry restrictions on Muslim worshipers at the Aqsa Mosque’s entrances and gates and prevented many of them from entering the holy site.
