Tensions have been high at Al-Aqsa Mosque on Sunday as Israeli settlers storm the holy compound, backed by occupation forces.

Palestinian media and Al-Mayadeen reported that the Israeli occupation forces had locked Al-Qibli prayer hall of the holy compound, noting that dozens of Palestinian worshippers were stuck inside the prayer hall.

The IOF then targeted worshippers in Al-Qibli prayer hall with rubber bullets leaving several injured. These measurements were taken to secure the Zionist settlers’ incursions.

Israeli media reported that occupation police scuffled with Palestinians as Zionist settlers toured the compound during the so-called Shavuot holiday.
