About 1083 Israeli Jerusalem settlers raided the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, coinciding with the so-called Jewish Holidays, according to media sources.

The blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque witnessed mass raids carried out by Israeli settlers, protected by Israeli forces, over the past two days.

Settlers raided Al-Aqsa via its Al-Maghariba and Al-Asbat gates and performed provocative dances and rituals.

Meanwhile, Israeli occupation forces attacked and assaulted Palestinian worshipers while paving a way for settlers to invade the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Several Palestinians were reported injured and others detained, including women, elderly, and journalists, during the Israeli attacks against Palestinian worshippers at Al-Aqsa Mosque.

In addition, Israeli forces denied several Palestinians access to Al-Aqsa and banished others from the mosque for periods ranging from weeks to months.

Earlier Wednesday, about 88 Israeli settlers broke into Al-Aqsa Mosque and performed provocative rituals under the protection of Israeli forces.

On a daily basis, Israeli settlers, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, break into the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, performing provocative Talmudic rituals except on Fridays and Saturdays.
