AhlulBayt News Agency: Thousands of Palestinian worshipers performed Friday prayer in the Aqsa Mosque in occupied Al-Quds amidst tight Israeli restrictions.
The Islamic Endowment Authority affirmed that around 40,000 Muslims performed the Friday prayer at the holy shrine.
Police forces also obstructed Muslim worshipers’ entry to the Aqsa Mosque through its gates, and brutally attacked them, in particular the young men, and checked their IDs.
A number of young men performed the Friday prayer in the vicinity of the Aqsa Mosque after the Israeli police prevented their access to the holy site.
Israeli forces impose strict restrictions on the entry of worshipers to the Aqsa Mosque, especially on Fridays, preventing thousands of citizens from the West Bank from reaching Al-Quds to perform prayers at the Mosque, as they require the issuance of special permits to cross Israeli military checkpoints surrounding the holy city.
