Al-Quds, MINA – A group of illegal Jewish settlers, escorted by Israeli police forces on Thursday morning stormed the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem, Palestine Information Center reported.

According to local sources, the settlers entered through the Al-Maghariba Gate and performed Talmudic rituals, including full prostrations, while being protected by Israeli security personnel.

The intrusion coincided with celebrations of what settlers refer to as “Independence Day,” marking the establishment of the Israeli state. During the event, settlers handed out Israeli flags and garments to participants as part of an attempt to assert control over the sacred Islamic site.

A day earlier, Israeli police had intensified their presence in the area, denying entry to Muslim worshippers, confiscating identification cards at various gates of the Mosque and the Old City.
