Groups of extremist settlers early Monday stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem (Al-Quds), according to a Palestinian source. The General Director of Islamic Awqaf and Al-Aqsa Affairs, Sheikh Azzam Al-Khatib said that Israeli settlers broke into the Mosque under heavy protection of Israeli police. Al-Khatib added that the settlers provocatively toured the Al-Aqsa yards, creating a state of anger and tension among Muslim worshippers.
