60,000 Palestinian worshipers perform Friday prayer at al-Aqsa

AhlulBayt News Agency: Thousands of Palestinians worshipers reached al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied al-Quds and performed Friday prayer in its courtyards amid strict Israeli measures.

Al-Quds sources said that 60,000 Muslim worshipers performed Friday prayer at the Mosque.

Since the early hours, the Israeli police were deployed in the streets of Jerusalem and prevented Palestinians from the West Bank from accessing the Mosque to perform prayers. Nevertheless, several thousands of them managed to reach the holy site.

Earlier in the morning, thousands performed dawn prayer at the holy site despite Israeli restrictions.

Since the early hours of dawn, thousands of Palestinians gathered at the gates of the al-Aqsa Mosque on their way to attend the dawn prayer, confirming the Palestinians’ spiritual links to the holy site.
