Extremist Israeli settlers storm Al-Aqsa Mosque under the protection of the Israeli occupation Forces

More than 48 Israeli settlers, protected by the Israeli occupation forces,   broke into Al-Aqsa Mosque on Tuesday and carried out provocative tours in its courtyards, according to WAFA News Agency.

The Israeli settlers carry out provocative incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque on a daily basis, in an attempt to impose a fait accompli regarding the controlling and Judaization of Al-Aqsa Compound.

 A Palestinian forced to demolish own house in Al-Quds

In the same context, the Israeli occupation authorities forced a Palestinian to demolish his own house in al-Quds’ neighborhood of Jabal al-Mukabber, under the pretext of unlicensed building, Wafa reported citing sources.

Khalid Abu Tayeh, an activist, told WAFA that Fawaz Abdo embarked on tearing down his own 100-square-meter house late Monday evening in the neighborhood to avoid paying heavy costs if the municipality there carries out the demolition on its own.

Abdo said that the demolition of his house, which he built over five years ago, resulted in the displacement of his six-member family.

Using the pretext of illegal building, the Israel occupation demolishes houses on a regular basis to prevent the Palestinian expansion in occupied Al-Quds.

Meantime in the West bank city of al-Khalil, the Israeli occupation forces demolished an agricultural facility in Zif village.

The occupation destroys Palestinian houses and facilities and razes agricultural lands in a bid to achieve demographic control over the occupied territories.
