Dozens of Jewish settlers and officers on Tuesday morning desecrated the Aqsa Mosque under police escort

An official source from the Islamic Awqaf Authority told Quds Press that Israeli police forces provided protection for scores of settlers and officers as they were touring the Aqsa Mosque’s courtyards.

Some settlers were reportedly seen performing prayers during their tours.

Meanwhile, the Israeli police at the entrances leading to the Mosque imposed entry restrictions on Muslim worshipers during the presence of settlers inside.

The Israeli police allow Jewish settlers to enter and tour the Mosque every day except on Friday and Saturday.
