Scores of IOF-protected settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque from Morocco Gate, who then carried out provocative tours in its courtyards and performed Talmudic rituals and prayers.
Near the entrance, an Israeli settler was seen trying to uproot a tree. He then gave up and headed towards Al-Aqsa to storm the holy site with dozens of others.

In the Palestinian city of Tubas, Israeli settlers attacked civilian vehicles near the Tayasir military checkpoint. Settlers broke the vehicles' windows as they were passing near the checkpoint, which was forcibly built on Palestinian land.
The Israeli settlers aim to establish a new settlement outpost within an Israeli camp built on Palestinian land in the east of Tubas.
Additionally, several Palestinian civilians were assaulted by a group of settlers in Beita, Nablus, where a Palestinian was injured after the IOF shot him Sunday.
