Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that Jewish visitors and non-Muslim tourists will be prohibited from entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound until the end of the holy month of Ramadan. This decision comes in light of recent confrontations between Palestinians and Israeli police in the Al-Aqsa Mosque during the holy month of Ramadan, which coincides this year with the Jewish Passover holiday. On Tuesday morning, around 800 Israeli settlers stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, under heavy protection of Israeli police, carrying out provocative tours and performing Talmudic rituals in its courtyards. The settlers entered the compound in groups through the Mughrabi Gate while Israeli police were deployed in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa, its gates, and on the roof of the Al-Qibli prayer hall. The police also forced Palestinians out of the compound under the pretext of filming the settlers.
