Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir on Wednesday stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem for the second time in a day, declaring an Israeli "victory" there, AFP reported.
Hamas condemned his visit as a "deliberate provocation".
He stormed the mosque earlier on Wednesday with 1,300 other Israelis.
It is Ben Gvir's 11th visit as minister to the complex, which is one of the holiest places in Islam.
