Settlers storm the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque

Settlers stormed, today Wednesday, the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque - the Noble Sanctuary in the occupied city of Jerusalem, from the direction of the Mughrabi Gate, under heavy protection from the Israeli occupation police.

The Islamic Awqaf Department in occupied Jerusalem stated in a statement that dozens of settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque and performed provocative Talmudic rituals in the eastern area of Al-Aqsa Mosque, noting that the intruders received briefings about the alleged "Temple" and organized suspicious tours in its courtyards.

Occupation forces prevented Palestinians in the town of Deir Jarir, east of the central West Bank city of Ramallah, from reaching their lands to harvest olives in the "Al-Haraiq" area, according to the Deir Jarir Municipal Council.

Occupation forces demolished several buildings in the vicinity of Qalandia refugee camp, north of the occupied city of Jerusalem, according to the Jerusalem Governorate.

Occupation forces issued a demolition notice for a house in the village of Um Safa, northwest of Ramallah, giving the owner until November 11 to comply, according to Um Safa village council head Marwan Sabah.

They also launched a campaign of raids and arrests targeting several cities, towns, villages, and refugee camps across the West Bank, which included raiding and searching houses, tampering with their contents, and detaining Palestinians who were subjected to field investigations after being mistreated.

The Palestinian Prisoners' Club stated in a statement that occupation forces stormed several areas in the West Bank and Jerusalem amidst heavy gunfire, arresting 40 Palestinians, including former prisoners, under the pretext that they were wanted.
