Colonists, heavily escorted by Israeli occupation forces, stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound on Monday through the Mughrabi Gate, on the seventh and final day of the Jewish holiday of Sukkot. "Dozens of colonists stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in groups under heavy Israeli police protection. They carried out provocative tours of the compound's courtyards and performed Talmudic rituals", reported the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA). Israeli occupation forces had tightened restrictions on Jerusalemites' access to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, barring some from entry, amid stringent measures to secure the colonists' incursions. These mass incursions come in response to calls issued by the so-called "Temple Groups" to orchestrate wide-scale raids across the Mosque throughout this holiday. The occupation authorities literally take advantage of Jewish occasions to escalate tensions in Jerusalem, providing justification for these incursions, sealing off the city's entrances, isolating it from its periphery, and turning it into a military zone. The intent is to prevent Palestinians' entry, suppress worshippers, and assault them, in addition to providing full protection for the colonists to desecrate the site, perform their rituals, and assert their presence inside the Mosque.
