Dozens of settlers, divided into groups, stormed al-Aqsa mosque compound, took provocative tours of its yards and near its gates, and performed Talmudic rituals there, as Israeli police provided them with protection and deployed its forces throughout the compound and at its gates, where they checked worshipers identity cards and impeded their entry.

Last Week, Israeli police stormed the Bab al-Rahmeh prayer area and destroyed its electrical power grid in a blatant violation of the sanctity of the site.
