Yesterday evening, after midnight, the settlers performed the prayer at Al-Qattaneen Gate - one of the gates of Al-Aqsa - from the outside.

The alleged temple groups continue to call on the settlers to carry out incursions into Al-Aqsa during this period on the occasion of "the days of repentance, Yom Kippur, then sukkot, and the sealing of the Torah" holidays.
