Amman, July 31 (Petra)– Tens of thousands of Palestinian worshipers
performed Friday prayer at the Al-Aqsa Mosque/Al-Haram Al-Sharif in
occupied East Jerusalem, despite heightened Israeli occupation
security measures around the holy site.
According to the Palestinian news agency WAFA, thousands of
worshipers began arriving at the mosque early Friday morning as
Israeli forces imposed strict security measures in its vicinity,
deploying large numbers of personnel at the gates of Al-Aqsa Mosque
and throughout Jerusalem’s Old City.
Israeli forces also set up military checkpoints across the city,
inside the Old City, and around the mosque compound. Dozens of young
Palestinians were stopped and had their identity cards checked before
being allowed to proceed, the agency reported.
