Dozens of fanatic settlers forced their way into al-Aqsa Mosque, on Tuesday morning, amid heavy police presence.
“The Israeli police allowed 57 settlers to enter al-Aqsa Mosque in the morning and perform Talmudic rituals,’’ A spokesperson for Jerusalem's Islamic Awqaf Department Feras al-Dibs told Quds Press.
Al-Dibs said that 50 Jewish guides entered the Mosque during the same period accompanied by 16 Shin Bet members and 6 police officers, noting that the Israeli police forces were deployed in large numbers in al-Aqsa Mosque's courtyards during the break-in.
The Palestinian official added that more settlers are expected to break into the Mosque for another round following noon prayer.
