A total of 559 Israeli settlers entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem in multiple groups via the Mughrabi Gate. This recurring activity has heightened tensions in the area, as the mosque holds significant religious importance.
Meanwhile, in Jerusalem, an adjacent shop near the Damascus Gate was demolished by authorities. The shop belonged to Iyad Abu Shehadeh, and its demolition reflects ongoing conflicts over property and jurisdiction in the city.
“The repeated incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque by settlers are provocative acts that jeopardize the fragile peace and stability in Jerusalem,” local observers commented.
These events illustrate the persistent frictions surrounding sacred sites and neighborhoods in Jerusalem, contributing to ongoing unrest.
The continuous pressure on religious sites and personal properties in Jerusalem deepens tensions and threatens the region's stability.
