A large number of Israeli settlers stormed the alleys of the Old City of occupied Al-Quds and made their way into the courtyards of the Holy Al-Aqsa Mosque on Wednesday, while Palestinians were prohibited from entering the mosque by Israeli occupation forces as zionists continued their provocative actions during the Yum Kippur.

Thousands of settlers have stormed the mosque in the past few days while Israeli forces further increased their suppression of Palestinian worshippers and launched aggression campaigns to prohibit them from carrying out prayers.

According to Al Mayadeen's correspondnent, Israeli police were prominently stationed near Bab Al-Qattanin on early Wednesday, a significant gate entry point to the Holy Al-Aqsa Mosque. The soldiers prevented journalists trying to cover the incidents and the settlers storming Al-Aqsa from approaching the area.

To protect the settlers, Israeli police heightened security measures in the area. They deployed forces at al-Aqsa Mosque to forcefully evict Muslim worshippers from the holy site's premises to facilitate the settlers' entry.

The Yum Kippur is set to continue through October 7, with the so-called "Temple Mount" organizations intensifying their calls during this period to increase the number of settlers infiltrating al-Aqsa Mosque.
