Palestine: Over 900 Jewish settlers storm Al-Aqsa complex

“Around 920 Jewish settlers have entered the compound, accompanied by Israeli police,” the Religious Endowments Authority, a Jordan-run agency responsible for overseeing the city’s Muslim and Christian holy sites, said in a statement.

Hawzah News Agency - (Occupied Palestine) - Hundreds of Jewish settlers forced their way into al–Quds (Jerusalem’s) flashpoint Al-Aqsa Mosque complex on Thursday, according to a Palestinian agency.

“Around 920 Jewish settlers have entered the compound, accompanied by Israeli police,” the Religious Endowments Authority, a Jordan-run agency responsible for overseeing the city’s Muslim and Christian holy sites, said in a statement.

It said the settlers entered through the compound’s al-Mugharbah Gate, where they tried to preform Talmudic rituals.

Al-Aqsa represents the world’s third-holiest site for Muslims, while Jews refer to the area as the “Temple Mount,” claiming it was the site of two Jewish temples in ancient times.

Israel occupied al - Quds, in which the Al-Aqsa is located, during the 1967 Arab-Israeli War.

In a move never recognized by the international community, it annexed the entire city in 1980, claiming it as the Jewish state’s “eternal and undivided” capital.
