Scores of zionist settlers, escorted by police forces, reportedly entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied Jerusalem today, as confirmed by local sources.

Approximately 372 settlers, led by extremist Israeli rabbi and MP Yehuda Glick, entered the compound in separate groups through the Mughrabi Gate.

They proceeded to conduct religious rituals within the premises, all under the protection of israeli police officers. This incursion occurred on the first day of the Jewish Passover.

The so-called Temple groups had previously urged their supporters to stage large-scale infiltrations into the Al-Aqsa Mosque at midnight before the Jewish Passover, scheduled for the twenty-third of this month, with intentions to perform religious sacrifices. (ILKHA)
