50K Perform Friday Prayer At Al-Aqsa Mosque
(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency)
Amman, Sept. 6 (Petra)-- Given the severe military restrictions the Israeli
Occupation authorities had placed on mosque entry, tens of thousands of people attended Friday prayers at the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
It was reported by the Islamic Awqaf Department in Jerusalem that Friday prayers were held within Al-Aqsa Mosque by roughly fifty thousand worshipers.
According to the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA), the occupying
soldiers prevented worshipers from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque through the Lions' Gate, verified their identities, and detained several of them.
Since the beginning of the all-out Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, the occupation forces have prevented thousands of West Bank residents from visiting Al-Aqsa Mosque and continue to impose severe restrictions on worshipers' access, particularly on Fridays.
