Zionist settlers desecrate Al-Aqsa Mosque courtyards under Israeli police protection

OCCUPIED QUDS, Sept. 25 (YPA) – Dozens of Zionist settlers desecrated the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Quds (Jerusalem) on Thursday, protected by Israeli occupation police.

According to Palestinian sources and eyewitnesses, groups of Zionist settlers stormed the mosque’s courtyards, conducted provocative tours, and performed Talmudic rituals.

Israeli occupation forces tightened their military measures at the gates of Al-Aqsa Mosque and in the Old City, restricting the entry of worshipers and Jerusalemites.

Last Tuesday, 443 settlers had stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque under heavy guard from Israeli forces, in a series of serious violations against the sanctity of the mosque.

Extremist “Temple” groups announced that 58,310 settlers had stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque during the last Hebrew year, from October 3, 2024, to September 22, 2025, an increase of 14% from the previous year, which saw 51,223 incursions.
