Jerusalem: A group of extremist Jewish settlers early on Monday stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in the occupied holy city of Jerusalem, a Palestinian source confirmed.
The General Director of the Islamic Awqaf and Al-Aqsa Affairs Sheikh Azzam Al-Khateeb told Petra’s reporter in Ramallah that today’s raid by the radical settlers was carried from Al-Magharebah Gate under heavy protection of Israeli special police.
Al-Khateeb noted that the settlers performed their Talmudic rituals to provoke the sentiments of the Palestinian citizens. The Jewish radicals storm the Al-Aqsa on a daily basis under the protection of Israeli special police and army, the Palestinian official added.
