Jewish holiday season began two weeks ago, marking the start of a month-long period of Talmudic rituals that Shehab Wire describes as part of a systematic effort to incrementally seize control of Al-Aqsa mosque. The campaign involves repeated individual and group incursions into the site, protected by Israeli police.
The reported plan coincides with heightened religious observances that the outlet characterizes as a coordinated attempt to alter the mosque's identity through sustained encroachment.
