Under the pretext of Jewish holidays: Settlers storm Al-Aqsa Mosque
Jerusalem - Ma'an: On Sunday, settlers stormed the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque in the city of Jerusalem under heavy protection from the occupation police.
Local sources reported that around 240 settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque from the direction of the Mughrabi Gate, carrying out provocative tours and performing Talmudic rituals, amid tightened military measures by occupation forces in the vicinity of the mosque and the Old City of Jerusalem.
Groups operating under the framework of the so-called "Temple Organizations" had called on their supporters to widely participate in storming Al-Aqsa Mosque and imposing new rituals inside it, under the pretext of celebrating the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah).
The occupation exploits Jewish holidays to close roads and impose strict restrictions on the movement of Palestinians in the West Bank, including Jerusalem, which exacerbates their daily suffering and deepens the restrictions on freedom of worship and movement. At the same time, facilities and privileges are granted to settlers, while local citizens are besieged within their cities, villages, and towns.
