Thursday, dozens of Jewish settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque/ al-Haram al-Sharif compound in occupied East Jerusalem.

In a statement, the Islamic Awqaf and Al-Aqsa Affairs Department in Jerusalem said that radical settlers carried out the raids through al-Magharebah gate under heavy protection of the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF).

The settlers performed Talmudic rituals and toured the yards of the Mosque, it added.
