Jewish settlers desecrate Aqsa Mosque

Dozens of Jewish settlers stormed the holy Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem on Wednesday morning under heavy police protection.

Awqaf officials said that more than 60 settlers broke into the holy site via Al-Maghareba gate in groups and desecrated its plazas and provoked worshippers.

Jewish fanatics had called on Tuesday for marking the third anniversary of the death of two extremist settlers (Isaac and Talia Emms) by organizing a mourning ceremony inside the Aqsa Mosque on Wednesday.
