Scores of Israeli settlers invaded on Tuesday morning, April 4, 2023, the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque and performed provocative rituals under the protection of Israeli occupation forces.

Local sources in Jerusalem reported that tens of Israeli settlers broke into the courtyards of Al-Aqsa and provocatively performed Talmudic rituals from the Al-Maghareba Gate area.

The Union of Temple Mount Groups called on the Israeli settlers to invade Al-Aqsa Mosque during the so-called Jewish Passover holiday and to offer animal sacrifices in its courtyards in the recent upcoming days.

Israeli settlers also intend to perform provocative Talmudic rituals, read biblical passages aloud and collectively, and conduct evocative dances in Al-Aqsa Mosque yards.

Meanwhile, Palestinians in occupied Jerusalem continue their calls to mobilize at Al-Aqsa to confront the Israeli incursions, which increased during the holy month of Ramadan.

On a daily basis, Israeli settlers carry out incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque and provocatively perform Talmudic rituals under the protection of Israeli occupation forces.

In February 2023 alone, at least 3583 Israeli settlers invaded the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque under the protection of Israeli forces.
