Eyewitnesses affirmed that a group of zionist settlers, along with their children, entered the Mosque through its Maghariba Gate and toured its courtyards in the morning.

During their tours at the Islamic holy site, the settlers received lectures from rabbis about the alleged temple mount.

The Aqsa Mosque is exposed to daily desecration by zionist settlers and police forces in the morning and the afternoon, except on Fridays and Saturdays.

 The zionist police close al-Maghariba Gate, which is used by Jews to enter the Mosque, at 10:30 am after the settlers complete their morning tours at the holy site. Later in the afternoon, the same gate is reopened for evening tours by settlers.

During the presence of settlers inside the Mosque compound, entry restrictions are imposed on Muslim worshipers at the entrances leading to the Mosque and their IDs could be seized until they leave the holy place. (ILKHA)
