JERUSALEM, September 22, 2025 (WAFA) – Hundreds of Israeli colonists stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque on Tuesday under heavy protection from Israeli occupation forces, as part of the Jewish New Year celebrations, which continue until Wednesday.

The incursion was accompanied by provocative actions, including the singing of religious songs, the performance of Talmudic and Torah rituals, as well as group clapping and dancing within the Al-Aqsa courtyards.

The Waqf Department reported that former Knesset member Rabbi Yehuda Glick stormed the mosque wearing Torah religious attire, protected by the occupation police, who imposed strict restrictions on the entry of Palestinians, checked their IDs, confiscating some at the gates.

Jewish holidays and occasions to carry out widespread incursions, amid heightened security and restrictions on the movement of Palestinians and worshippers in the Old City of occupied Jerusalem.

These groups aim to increase colonist presence in the holy site and impose Talmudic rituals within the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, a dangerous step toward establishing new Judaization practices in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound.

These incursions are part of the occupation's efforts to obliterate the Islamic and historical identity of Jerusalem and threaten Islamic sovereignty over Al-Aqsa Mosque. Meanwhile, calls continue for Jerusalemites and those within Israel to mobilize and defend the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound to thwart the plans of the occupation and the settlers, and to emphasize that the mosque is a red line that cannot be crossed.

The Al-Aqsa Mosque compound is subjected to daily incursions by colonists, under the protection of the occupation, in an attempt to impose temporal and spatial division, exacerbating tensions and threatening the religious and historical status of the mosque.
