Jerusalem: Far-right Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, along with dozens of settlers and hardline Jews, stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque/Haram Al Sharif compound in occupied Jerusalem on Wednesday. This incursion took place under heavy escort by Israeli occupation police.

According to Jordan News Agency, the Jerusalem Governorate issued a statement revealing that the settlers entered the complex through Bab Al Magharebah Gate. During the incursion, they performed prayers, which has been viewed as a provocation against Muslim worshippers and guards at the site.
