Jerusalem, August 1 (Petra)-- Despite the severe military restrictions placed on entry by the Israeli occupation authority, thousands of Palestinians performed Friday prayer at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, in occupied Jerusalem.
An estimated 40,000 worshipers performed Friday prayer at Al-Aqsa Mosque, according to a statement from the Jerusalem Islamic Awqaf Department.
According to the Waqf Department, occupation soldiers blocked worshipers' entry to the Al-Aqsa Mosque through the Damascus and Lions Gates, verified their identification, and detained several young men, preventing them from entering the mosque.
When worshipers arrived at Al-Aqsa Mosque for the Friday noon prayer, radical Jewish settlers also staged provocative dances and singing outside Lions Gate.
