Al-Quds, 27 Jumadil Awwal 1436/18 March 2015 (MINA) – Extremist Jewish settlers stormed Tuesday the Aqsa Mosque from al-Magharebah Gate under tight security measures imposed by Israeli policemen and Special Forces.

Eyewitnesses said the Jerusalemite worshipers gathered to defend the holy site and prevent the settlers from performing Talmudic rituals at the Mosque, The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.

The eyewitnesses pointed out that an Israeli policeman attacked a Jerusalemite woman because she chanted “Allahu Akbar” when a Jewish settler provoked her. The worshipers in turn confronted the extremist settler.

The Israeli policemen deliberately held the identity cards of some young worshipers until they got out of the Aqsa Mosque.
