’Israel’ Imposes Ramadan Restrictions on Aqsa

Local Editor

"Israeli" police imposed restrictions on Palestinian worshipers entering the Aqsa compound as they deployed in large numbers around occupied al-Quds on Friday.

"Israeli" police only allowed occupied al-Quds ID holders over 50 and women to enter the Aqsa compound to pray.

While occupied West Bank residents who have permits will be allowed to enter, "Israeli" authorities at Bethlehem's 300 checkpoint prevented all Hebron residents from crossing.

Worshipers said that "Israeli" soldiers at the checkpoint did not allow them to cross, despite them being over 50, because they were from the Hebron district.

Tens of thousands of Palestinians pray at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound on the first Friday of Ramadan.

Palestinians from occupied West Bank and the seized Gaza Strip are usually barred from occupied east al-Quds.
