Hundreds of settlers defile Aqsa Mosque

Hundreds of Jewish settlers on Wednesday morning carried out renewed descration break-ins at the Aqsa Mosque under tight police escort.
According to local sources, hundreds of settlers gathered at the Aqsa Mosque’s gates and the Bab al-Rahma prayer building before swarming its courtyards.
The mass break-ins at the Islamic holy site came after extremist Jewish settlers handed out leaflets inciting Jews to march en masse to what they called the temple mount to commemorate a religious event.
Many settlers were seen wearing religious clothing during their tour of the Mosque.
Local sources warned that other groups of settlers would defile the Aqsa Mosque on Thursday.
