Nearly 200 Israeli settlers storm Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem
Roughly 190 Israeli settlers, protected by Israeli forces, stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem, according to the Wafa news agency.
Local sources said the settlers streamed into the mosque’s courtyards in groups and performed “provocative” tours and Talmudic rituals as Israeli soldiers and police watched on.
The status quo at Al-Aqsa Mosque, defined by a set of rules and regulations considered a binding international norm and long recognised by world powers. It designates the mosque as an exclusively Islamic site, where only Muslims are permitted to worship.
