Dozens of settlers stormed the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem on Sunday morning.

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.

The ministry pointed out that the settlers carried out provocative tours in the mosque’s yards, and performed Talmudic rituals on the eastern side and in front of the Dome of the Rock, before leaving from the Chain Gate side.
