Al-Aqsa gates see new tensions
Jerusalem experienced a serious escalation during the third day of the Jewish Sukkot holiday, as Israeli occupation forces and settlers carried out widespread violations inside Al-Aqsa Mosque. These included mass incursions and religious rituals linked to the holiday, with around 300 settlers participating. Main streets in the city were closed to facilitate these rituals, leading to traffic jams and restrictions on residents' movements. Local authorities viewed these measures as collective punishment against the Palestinian population and as an affirmation of policies aimed at imposing the status quo and dividing the mosque. Additionally, various plants associated with religious rituals were brought into Al-Aqsa, and settlers performed "Musaf" prayers in a manner that contradicts the mosque's historical and legal status. Moreover, the courtyards witnessed acts of singing and dancing that provocatively insult and desecrate the sanctity of the site. These practices represent an escalation that threatens to impose religious changes and a temporal and spatial division of the mosque, all under military protection for the encroachers.
