Settlers carried out a provocative tour in the Al-Aqsa's courtyard.
Today, Tuesday, Palestinian media reported that 117 Israeli settlers stormed the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied al-Quds, backed with heavy security from the Israeli occupation forces. Meanwhile, local sources reported that about 257 settlers stormed the mosque.
The local sources said that the settlers carried out a provocative tour in the mosque's courtyard under the protection of the occupation police.
A week ago, with the presence of the extremist Rabbi, Yehuda Glick, dozens of settlers stormed the mosque through the Mughrabi Gate and carried out provocative tours in its courtyards.
The occupation arrested a young man in the Dome of the Rock chapel on charges of uttering “takbeer” simultaneously with the storming of settlers.
Other units of the occupation forces suppressed a protest against the settlements in the southern West Bank.
It was reported that Israeli occupation authorities are "lenient" with the aggressor settlers as part of official efforts to increase settlements in the occupied territories.
In another context, today, two civilians were injured by rubber-coated metal bullets, and dozens suffocated in the town of Sa`ir, northeast of Al-Khalil. Israeli forces fired tear gas canisters during the confrontations that erupted after a solidarity march with the 6 Palestinian prisoners who managed to escape from Gilboa prison.
Last Saturday, a general strike dominated the scene in the Jenin governorate as well, in response to the call of the national and Islamic forces in solidarity with the prisoners.
Clashes also erupted with the occupation forces in the village of Kharsa, south of Dura in the West Bank.
Palestinian cities witnessed angry demonstrations against the occupation to reject Israeli violations against the prisoners.
