According to the Islamic Awqaf Authority in Jerusalem, at least 130 zionist settlers entered the Mosque through al-Maghariba Gate and toured its courtyards under police guard.

34 female zionist settlers in army uniform also defiled the Mosque’s courtyards.

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 gangs close al-Maghariba Gate, which is used by Jews to enter the Mosque, at 10:30 am after the zionist settlers complete their morning tours at the holy site. Later in the afternoon, the same gate is reopened for evening tours by zionist 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 are seized until they leave the holy place. (ILKHA)
