More than 20,000 Palestinians perform Friday prayer at Al-Aqsa

At least 20,000 Palestinian Muslims prayed at Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque on Friday despite inclement weather that caused several road accidents in the Palestinian territories.

On Wednesday, Israeli police allowed Jewish settlers to perform “Talmudic rituals” — in an “unprecedented” manner — inside Al-Aqsa compound, Firas al-Dibbis, a spokesman for Jerusalem’s Religious Endowments said.

Religious Endowments’ officials accused the Israeli authorities of prohibiting the planned renovation of the iconic mosque and surrounding buildings.

They also accused Israeli occupation of stepping up an ongoing campaign against both the Al-Aqsa and the Jordan-run endowments authority, which is responsible for the mosque’s maintenance.
