Scores of Jewish extremist settlers on Wednesday stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque/ al-Haram al-Sharif compound in occupied East Jerusalem, according to an official Palestinian source. A statement by the General Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem said that the settlers carried out today’s raids through al-Magharebah Gate under the heavy protection of Israeli police, who restricted Muslim worshippers’ access to the mosque. “The settlers provocatively toured the Mosque’s yards and performed Talmudic rituals in the area of Bab Al-Rahma, east of the holy shrine,” it added.
