Hundreds of Zionist settlers forced their way into the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex in occupied East Jerusalem today to perform provocatively Talmudic rituals on the Jewish Passover holiday.
In a statement, the Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem said 765 Zionist settlers entered the flashpoint site in groups under the protection of Israeli police through the Al-Mughrabi Gate area, west of the holy mosque.
The agency said that nearly 500 settlers stormed the mosque on the first day of Passover yesterday.
According to the Palestinian Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs, illegal settlers raided the mosque 21 times last month, when Muslims celebrated the holy month of Ramadan.
Figures released by the Jerusalem governor showed that 13,064 illegal settlers stormed the mosque in the first quarter of 2025.
