Dozens of Jewish radical settlers on Sunday morning broke into the Al-Aqsa Mosque / Haram al-Sharif compound in occupied East Jerusalem.

Eyewitnesses told Petra's reporter in Ramallah that the settlers stormed the Mosque through the al-Magharebah gate in groups under tight protection by the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF).

The settlers toured the Mosque's yards and provocatively performed Talmudic rituals in the eastern part of the compound, they added.
