Ben Gavir storms Al-Aqsa
The Minister of Internal Security in the occupation government stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque, during the morning raids, and toured Al-Aqsa, escorted by special forces and police.
Ben Gavir said in his speech at Al-Aqsa: “I came to pray for the kidnapped people and for their return to their homes without an illegal deal and without surrender, and I am working hard so that the Prime Minister can achieve this. The strength is not to back down and to continue until victory.”
This is Minister Ben Gavir’s fifth storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque since he took office in late 2022, and it is the second time he has stormed Al-Aqsa during the war, and the first was last May on the “Second/Little Passover” holiday.
The police were deployed at the gates of Al-Aqsa, and prevented worshipers from entering it during the settlers’ incursions period and Ben Gavir’s presence inside Al-Aqsa.
The forces also continued to be stationed at the gates of Al-Aqsa, checking the identities of those arriving there, subjecting them to searches, and preventing some from entering.
Meanwhile, 159 extremists carried out their raids into Al-Aqsa today, during the morning and afternoon incursion periods, through the Dung Gate.
Raids and arrests
The raids on towns and neighborhoods in the city of Jerusalem continued, and the forces arrested 3 young men from Beit Hanina, the Old City of Jerusalem, and Silwan.
Joint crews from the municipality and the police also stormed the town of Silwan.
