Occupied Jerusalem, MINA – Dozens of Israeli settlers stormed on Sunday morning al-Aqsa Mosque—the third holiest site in Islam—in Occupied Jerusalem.

130 Israeli settlers, escorted by policemen, broke into al-Aqsa Mosque via the Maghareba Gate as part of the morning break-in shift and carried out a round of sacrilegious tours, PIC reported.

At the same time, the peaceful Muslim worshipers have been subjected to tough crackdowns and restrictions by the Israeli police near the main entrances to the site.

Several worshipers have been searched and dozens more have had their IDs seized while attempting to enter al-Aqsa to perform their daily prayers.
