Dozens of settlers entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque on Thursday morning through the Gate of the Moors, protected by Israeli occupation police, Shehab Wire reported. They conducted provocative tours through the mosque's courtyards while restrictions on Muslim worshippers' access were tightened.
The incursion marks another in a series of organized settler intrusions into the sacred site, which remains a flashpoint for Israeli-Palestinian tensions.
