Shehab Wire (EN) reported that groups of settlers entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque on Sunday morning under the protection of Israeli occupation forces. The settlers performed Talmudic rituals that included chanting and dancing, coinciding with what is called the Hebrew New Year.
The intrusions occur amid heightened tensions around the mosque compound, where such settler activities have sparked repeated Palestinian protests and confrontations with Israeli security forces.
