Israeli settlers storm Al-Aqsa Mosque complex
3 September 2024 08:04 BST
Israeli settlers have stormed occupied East Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa Mosque complex with police protection, Palestine's Wafa news agency reports.
The agency says police forces are spread out around the complex.
Israeli settlers have stepped up their raids into the holy site in recent months, with the support of far-right Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir.
Ben Gvir entered the mosque in July and proclaimed that Jews could pray there, in breach of a long-standing status quo regarding the area.
The move was widely condemned by the international community.
