Eyewitnesses confirmed that a group of settlers broke into the holy Islamic site through its Al-Magharba Gate, southwest of the Mosque, guarded by Israeli police.

Zionist settlers storm Al-Aqsa Mosque every day in the morning and afternoon, except on Fridays and Saturdays, and embark on provocative acts in defiance of Muslim worshipers. Al-Aqsa Mosque is the world's third-holiest site for Muslims.

The zionist regime’s occupied East Jerusalem, where Al-Aqsa Mosque is located, during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war. It annexed the entire city in 1980, a move never recognized by the international community. (ILKHA)
