20,000 Palestinians gather for Friday Prayer at Aqsa Mosque amid tensions
In a significant show of faith and resilience, 20,000 Palestinian worshipers converged at the revered Aqsa Mosque today to observe the Friday prayer. However, their peaceful devotion was marred by israeli police actions.
Zionist authorities, in a controversial move, banned hundreds of people from entering the holy site. This marks the 16th consecutive Friday where access has been denied to some worshipers.
Prior to the Friday prayer, israeli police sealed off roads leading to the Old City of Jerusalem, causing disruptions for Palestinian citizens.
Despite the security restrictions, thousands of Jerusalemites managed to perform the Fajr prayer within the Aqsa Mosque. Their determination underscores the deep spiritual significance of this sacred space.
A group of Jerusalemite campaigners and activists rallied for a powerful statement. They called for performing the Great Fajr prayer in the Aqsa Mosque’s courtyards and urged an end to the siege imposed on this holy site.
The situation remains tense, and international observers closely monitor developments in the region. (ILKHA)
