Occupies Quds - Saba:

Hundreds of extremist Zionist settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque from the Mughrabi Gate this morning, Tuesday, under heavy guard from Israeli forces, on the third day of the so-called Jewish Passover holiday.

Palestinian media reported that Israeli forces had transformed the Old City and the surrounding area of Al-Aqsa into a military barracks to protect settlers from incursions and provocations during the Jewish holiday.

The Islamic Endowments Department in occupied Quds reported that 485 settlers stormed Al-Aqsa and toured its courtyards.

It explained that the intruders performed Talmudic rituals and prayers amid dancing, singing, and clapping in the eastern area of the mosque.

Israeli occupation forces imposed strict restrictions on the entry of worshippers entering the mosque, checking their IDs and detaining some at its outer gates.

Israeli occupation forces reinforced the presence of their personnel and special units on the streets and roads of the Holy City, coinciding with the Jewish holiday.

1,149 Zionist settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque yesterday, Monday, on the second day of the Jewish Passover holiday. They toured its courtyards, performed prayers, and performed Talmudic dances.

The intruders performed the "priestly blessings" ritual in Al-Aqsa Mosque, under the protection of the occupation police. This ritual usually accompanies the offering of sacrifices.

The extremist group "The Temple Mount is in Our Hands" issued an announcement about "subsidized transportation" and "free tours-incursions" inside Al-Aqsa Mosque.

It called on settlers to reserve seats and participate in the incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque during what it described as the "central incursions days," coinciding with the Passover holiday.

The Easter holiday will last for a week, beginning at sunset on Saturday, April 12, and continuing until sunset on Saturday, April 19. The holiday will include five days of raids, from Sunday to Thursday, with the gates closed on Friday and Saturday.

Calls continue to intensify the presence of worshippers at Al-Aqsa Mosque and mobilize the largest possible number of worshippers to confront settler plots during the so-called Passover holiday.

The calls emphasized the importance of the presence and intensive presence in the Al-Aqsa compound from the early hours of dawn to thwart settler plots and prevent any attempt to bring in sacrifices or perform Talmudic rituals.
