Israeli settlers stormed Monday morning the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, performing Talmudic rituals under the protection of Israeli occupation police.

The occupation forces tightened restrictions on the entry of Palestinian worshippers to Al-Aqsa, imposing stringent military measures at all the mosque's gates, as well as around the Old City of al-Quds and its entrances.

This incursion coincides with the fifth day of the Hanukkah holiday, the Jewish festival of light, during which settlers have called for increased incursions into the mosque, which continues until the end of this week.
