Al-AqsaThe Zionist police on Tuesday stopped dozens of Palestinian women and children from entering occupied East Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque, according to eyewitnesses.

“Israeli police set up barricades at the entrances of the mosque and barred a number of women and children from entry,” one witness said. “Several of the children cried in terror after Israeli police chased them near the mosque compound’s Al-Asbat Gate.”

Tension has been running high at Al-Aqsa since Tuesday morning, when the occupation forces allowed dozens of extremist Jewish settlers to enter the flashpoint mosque complex.

Over the past two years, groups of Jewish extremists – often accompanied by Zionist security forces – have repeatedly forced their way into the mosque compound.

The frequent violations anger Palestinian Muslims and occasionally lead to violent confrontations.
