Israeli Occupation Forces IOF brutally attacked Sunday morning 17 April 2022 the Palestinian prayers including women and elderly in Jerusalem Mosque of Al-Aqsa.
Hundreds of Israeli troops assaulted the worshipers after Dawn prayer, firing rubber bullets, stun grenades and smoking bombs at people while performing prayers.
Locals said IOF closed gates of Al-Aqsa mosque, and prevented worshipers from reaching Aqsa mosque before attacking worshipers.
Israeli forces keep their raids on Aqsa mosque and people there to clear it out for Israeli settlers who keep storming the Mosque and perform their Talmudic rituals.
The Israeli raids started two days ago, where Israeli forces have been suppressing Palestinian prayers and worshipers, as a result of which some 600 Palestinian people were detained and dozens were injured.
The Israeli attacks take place in Ramadan, the holiest month for Muslims, against Aqsa Mosque, the holiest place after Al-Masjid Al-Haram, which is considered a serious provocation for the whole Muslim nation.
Many countries and International parties condemned the Israeli aggressive attacks against defenseless prayers in the yards of Al-Aqsa including the United Nations.
Palestinian national forces, including Hamas movement, warned the Israeli occupation from keeping on storming Aqsa mosque and assaulting Muslim prayers in Aqsa yards.
Israeli extremist settlers launched calls and propaganda campaigns lately to perform Talmudic rituals in the yards of Aqsa mosque including sacrificing offerings and spreading blood there.
Hamas movement warned that fulfilling such defiling acts in Yards of Aqsa mosque would be a violation of red lines set after military confrontation in May 2021, and certainly it would spark another military confrontation with Israeli occupation to defend Aqsa mosque.
In Ramadan 2021, Israeli occupation forces as well as Israeli settlers brutally attacked Palestinian prayers in Aqsa mosque using excessive force against people in Aqsa.
Israeli occupation forces launched stun grenades, live bullets, smoke grenades against worshipers injuring hundreds including women and children.
The Israeli assault was the spark of 11-day military confrontation, in which Israeli occupation forces killed 232 Palestinian people including 39 women, 65 children and 17 elderly, and injured some 2000 people.
