AhlulBayt News Agency: The Islamic Endowment Authority affirmed that around 60,000 Palestinian worshipers performed the Friday prayer at the Aqsa Mosque in occupied Al-Quds.
Israeli police forces obstructed Muslim worshipers’ entry to the Aqsa Mosque through its gates, and brutally attacked them, especially young men, and checked their IDs.
Eyewitnesses affirmed that the Israeli forces arrested the worshiper Khair al-Shimy at al-Sahira gate and took him to Salah al-Din Police Station.
The Israeli forces also prevented worshipers from performing the Friday prayer on the roads in the vicinity of the Aqsa Mosque after being denied access to the holy site and forced them to leave the Asbat area.
The police forces also set up iron barriers around the Old City, stopped and searched young men, and prevented them from reaching the Aqsa Mosque.
Earlier, Palestinian calls have been launched to intensify Palestinian presence at the Aqsa Mosque during the holy month of Ramadan and to thwart Israeli Judaization plans.
The calls also stressed the importance of protecting the holy site in light of the escalating Israeli threats against Islamic sanctities.
