The Islamic Waqf Department reported that
dozens of settlers breached Al-Aqsa Mosque from the Moroccan Gate side, closely
guarded by occupation police. This occurred on the festival's inaugural day
amidst the disguise of extremist settlers from Temple groups donning
"Temple priests" attire, emphasizing their extremist Jewish religious
presence at Al-Aqsa, Al-Mamlaka TV reported.
Additionally, the settlers conducted
provocative tours within the mosque's courtyards and performed Talmudic
rituals, all under the watchful eye of occupation police.
Furthermore, occupation forces also stormed
the Qibli prayer hall to secure the settlers' access to the blessed Al-Aqsa
Mosque.
Witnesses noted that occupation police
heightened security measures at Al-Aqsa's gates and the main gates of Old
Jerusalem. They turned away young men and denied them entry into Al-Aqsa during
this period.
It is anticipated that Al-Aqsa Mosque will
experience further settler incursions on Sunday and Monday as part of the
"Jewish Purim Festivities."
