March 6, 2024

On the 152nd day of "Al-Aqsa Flood Operation", the Israeli forces arrested a boy on suspicion of "carrying out a stabbing operation" in the "Nabi Yaqoub" settlement, and the municipal bulldozers carried out a demolition operation in the town of Silwan, while the restrictions imposed on the entry of Muslims into Al-Aqsa continued, amidst the continued incursions of settlers into Al-Aqsa.

The Israeli police said that they had arrested a 14-year-old boy, on suspicion of carrying out a stabbing in the “Nabi Yaqoub” settlement in the town of Beit Hanina, north of Jerusalem.

Large forces of the police, special forces, intelligence and officers stormed the area of Beit Hanina, cordoned off the area around the stabbing site and closed some streets with red tape and police vehicles, and the police prevented the vehicles from passing, and conducted a search and investigation, then announced the arrest of the boy suspected of the stabbing.

The forces closed the Qalandia military checkpoint and intensified the inspection procedures at the Shu’fat refugee camp checkpoint after the "stabbing operation", which led to severe traffic jams at the checkpoints and their surroundings.

In the town of Silwan, the forces, accompanied by municipal crews and vehicles, stormed the Ein al-Lozeh neighborhood and the bulldozer carried out the operation of demolishing a "fence" for the Burqan family, in addition to razing the plot of land.

In the village of Issawiya, intelligence and police forces broke into several houses in the village's neighborhoods, and ensured the commitment of the young men placed under “house arrest".

In the midst of continuing to impose restrictions on worshipers entering Al-Aqsa, for the sixth consecutive month, 134 settlers broke into the mosque, through the Dung Gate, whose keys have been controlled by the occupation authorities since the occupation of Jerusalem.

The forces stationed at the gates of Al-Aqsa stopped those arriving to it and checked their identities and detained them, and prevented the young men from entering it.

On the other hand, the intelligence service expelled Mohammad Al-Bakri, Ahmed Al-Bakri, and Ahmed Najib from Al-Aqsa Mosque for 3 months. The intelligence summoned the young men last week and handed them an "expulsion order for one week", and today the decision was renewed for 3 months.
