Gaza, MINA – Tens of thousands of Palestinian worshippers performed Friday prayers at Al-Aqsa Mosque and its courtyards, defying the stringent Israeli restrictions imposed across Occupied Jerusalem, PIC reported.
Since early morning, Israeli police enforced severe measures at military checkpoints surrounding Jerusalem and erected iron barriers around the Old City and the gates of the Mosque. Dozens of young men were stopped, their IDs checked, and many were prevented from reaching the holy site in an apparent attempt to limit the number of attendees.
Amid these oppressive measures, Palestinian voices in Jerusalem continued to call for urgent action to defend Al-Aqsa Mosque and other Islamic holy sites and to halt daily attacks aimed at erasing the Arab and Islamic identity of the city.[]
