Thousands of ’Israeli’ Settlers Storm East Al-Quds, Call for Burning Al-Aqsa!
Local Editor
In their continuous attacks against Palestinians, thousands of "Israeli" settlers have staged a march in the "Israeli"-occupied Old City of al-Quds.
The march was held on Sunday on the eve of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, and was planned to coincide with the 49th anniversary of "Israel's" occupation of East al-Quds' Old City. It is held on the same day every year.
Scuffles erupted between the settlers and some local Palestinians as the extremist "Israelis" chanted slogans, vowing to burn down the al-Aqsa Mosque, a holy site highly regarded by Palestinians.
Palestinian shopkeepers were ordered to close their stores along the route of the march, but some refused to comply.
"I am not afraid. This is my shop. This is my Jerusalem. I am not closing," said Ahmed Dandes, a tailor who sells men's trousers at the Damascus Gate.
An "Israeli" court on Thursday had rejected a petition to ban the march from passing through the Muslim Quarter in the Old City of al-Quds to avoid possible clashes with Palestinians, according to "Israeli" Haaretz newspaper.
Meanwhile, some 208 "Israeli" settlers stormed the al-Aqsa Holy Mosque under tight "Israeli" police protection. However, the mosque guards prevented some of them from performing religious rituals.
The Palestinian Islamic endowment organization Waqf also decried the settlers' "provocative" actions at the compound.
"Israel" occupied East al-Quds following the six-day war of 1967. It later annexed the area in a move never recognized by the international community.
