More than 200 Israeli soldiers, in uniform, and Jewish settlers stormed the holy Aqsa mosque on Monday in the company of hundreds of tourists.
The Palestinians-48 website said that the settlers and soldiers entered the Aqsa through Bab Al-Maghareba gate and provocatively roamed the mosque’s plazas.
It said that the soldiers threatened Palestinian children inside the site against approaching the tourists.
Jewish settlers and soldiers in uniform have recently escalated their storming of the Aqsa mosque while Palestinian worshippers are barred from entry or harassed at its gates.
