Israeli settlers raid Al-Aqsa Mosque with police protection

Hundreds of Israeli settlers have raided occupied East Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa Mosque with Israeli police protection, the Wafa news agency reports.

The Al-Aqsa Mosque Affairs Department, also known as the Waqf, said that over 1,200 settlers raided the mosque's grounds.

Israeli police reportedly complicated Palestinians' entry to the mosque and were heavily present to ensure the settlers' movement.
