AhlulBayt News Agency: Dozens of extremist Jewish settlers escorted by police officers desecrated the Aqsa Mosque in Occupied al-Quds (Jerusalem) on Monday morning and later in the afternoon.
According to al-Qastal News website, at least 243 settlers entered the Mosque in groups through its Maghariba Gate and toured its courtyards under police guard.
A number of settlers also performed Talmudic prayers in the eastern area of the Mosque.
Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation police continued to impose restrictions on the entry of Muslim worshipers to the Mosque, especially those who came from different areas of Jerusalem and 1948 occupied Palestine.
Recently, al-Quds activists and religious figures called on their compatriots to intensify their presence at the Aqsa Mosque, especially during the coming days, warning that Jewish settler groups intend to mark the eight-day Hanukkah holiday at the Islamic holy site.
