Zionist Forces Storm Al-Aqsa Mosque
Zionist forces in the morning broke into the mosque, vandalized it, threw rubber-coated metal bullets on the worshipers and assaulted some youths. In addition, about 30 settlers also broke into the mosque from Al Magharba gate, PNN reported.
Israeli forces have set flying checkpoints on the gates of Al-Aqsa, preventing men under 50 from entering it. Women and seniors were forced to leave their ID cards on the entrance.
After 6:30 this morning, the Zionists closed the gates for everyone.
The Israeli police have also broken the fire system in the mosque, making the water leak all through the building.
On Saturday, Israeli settlers severely assaulted a Palestinian child near one of the gates leading to Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in the Old City of Quds (Jerusalem).
Eyewitnesses said that extremist Israeli settlers assaulted the child, who was not identified, near al-Ghawanma Gate, prompting a group of Palestinians to intervene and save him. Settlers eventually managed to flee the scene.
Israeli settlers have repeatedly broke into Al-Aqsa mosque in a provocative manner, backed by Israeli occupation right-wing government and military.
In Islamic belief, Al-Aqsa mosque in East Jerusalem, is considered the third holiest place in Islam.
