Some 53 Jewish extremist settlers early Wednesday stormed AlAqsa Mosque in Jerusalem (AlQuds), a Palestinian source confirmed. The General Director of the Islamic Awqaf and AlAqsa Affairs, Sheikh Azzam Al-Khatib, pointed out that today's raid by the extremist settlers was carried under heavy protection of Israeli army and police. Al-Khatib noted that the settlers provocatively toured the Mosque and performed their Talmudic rituals.
