Zionist settlers perform Talmudic rituals opposite Dome of the Rock at Al-Aqsa Mosque

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, Oct. 21 (YPA) – Zionist extremist settlers performed Talmudic prayers and rituals in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, on Tuesday morning, under the protection of occupation forces.

Local sources in Jerusalem reported that dozens of settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque this morning and performed their prayers at the western corridor opposite the Dome of the Rock, continuing to impose new facts on the ground inside the mosque.

Settler groups storm Al-Aqsa Mosque daily in groups, in the morning and evening, starting from the Mughrabi Gate, under the protection of occupation police.

Meanwhile, occupation forces impose restrictions on the entry of worshippers and escalate their attacks on them at the gates of Al-Aqsa and in its vicinity.

Coinciding with the storming of Al-Aqsa, Jerusalemite sources reported that occupation municipal crews stormed the Sweih neighborhood in the town of Silwan, south of Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The so-called “Temple” groups called on settlers and their followers to storm the Al-Aqsa Mosque courtyards next Wednesday and Thursday to perform prayers of thanks for the return of the occupation prisoners from the Gaza Strip.

For his part, the preacher of Al-Aqsa Mosque, Sheikh Ekrima Sabri, called on the sons of the Palestinian people in Jerusalem and the occupied interior, and all those able to reach it, to travel to the blessed mosque and defend it, in defense of its sanctity and holy sites from attempts at desecration.
