Qatar: 70,000 Palestinians perform Friday prayers at Al-Aqsa Mosque

Tens of thousands of Palestinians performed Friday prayers at the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, despite the strict military measures imposed by the Israeli occupation forces at the gates of the mosque and the entrances to the Old City of occupied Jerusalem. The Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem estimated that about 70,000 worshipers performed Friday prayers in the Al-Aqsa Mosque. And the Palestinian News Agency / Wafam stated that the occupation forces tightened their procedures at the gates of Al-Aqsa Mosque, checked the cards of citizens arriving to it, and prevented many from entering. It is noteworthy that the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque is exposed daily to a series of incursions by settlers under the protection of the occupation forces, as part of the occupation’s attempts to divide it temporally and spatially.
