Amman, May 22 (Petra)– Around 70,000 worshipers performed Friday
prayer at the Al-Aqsa Mosque / Al-Haram Al-Sharif, despite tightened
Israeli occupation security measures around the holy site.
According to the Palestinian news agency WAFA, citing the Jerusalem
Governorate, tens of thousands of worshipers began arriving at the
mosque compound early in the morning. Israeli forces deployed heavily
around the gates of Al-Aqsa Mosque and throughout Jerusalem’s Old
City.
The Israeli forces prevented a number of worshipers and young men
from entering the mosque to perform Friday prayer.
