Earlier Sunday, Israeli Occupation Forces “IOF” and hundreds of radical Jewish settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque resulting in clashes that continued for hours between the Palestinians and the IOF for hours till late at night.
It started with provocation and rallies by the Jewish settlers around Al-Aqsa Mosque on Saturday with a clear intention that it was going to be a very long day ahead, they want to storm Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Those settlers were allegedly commemorating the Tisha B’ Av or the day the Mount Temple was destroyed through history.

The Jerusalemite Palestinians warned that those settlers were going to storm Al-Aqsa Mosque but nobody cared anymore in the Arab or international community.
Then at the Fajr prayer “Dawn prayer” earlier Sunday at Al-Aqsa Mosque complex. The attack started with the IOF storming the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex specifically at the Al-Qibli side of the mosque which is the main mosque in the complex at 5.37 am.

The Mosque suffered damages and honestly, I want the Israeli government to pay for the damage their forces caused.

The armed radical Jewish settlers were moving in the old city with automatic machine guns and the Israeli authorities believe that they are not dangerous at all.

On Sunday, nearly 1,540 radical Jewish settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque under the protection of the IOF according to the Israeli and Palestinian protesters.
I hate to say but imagine the amount of condemnation and anger the world or rather the west would express if the roles were shifted !!
Now reading more into Tisha B’ AV or the saddest day in the Jewish calendar I have not found that Jews must visit “The temple Mount” where Al-Aqsa Mosque or that they have to storm and provoke other believers !!
It seems to me the IOF decided to commemorate the destruction of the temple mount by destroying Al-Aqsa Mosque !! It is like shifting roles with the Babylonians and Roman soldiers.
It is very interesting that we always find those days and events come at the same time with Muslim religious events and IOF start shooting into the Muslim side !!
Eid Al-Adha is two days away and for the second time, Israeli occupation forces and Jewish Settlers target Muslim Palestinians’ holiest days at the Muslims’ third holiest site. We all remember how things escalated from three months in Ramadan !!
I do not know what kind of message they are trying to send or what kind of goal they are trying to achieve because we already know how things can turn so bad and Israel’s image has not been fully restored after the repercussions of its attack on Gaza.
Egypt has officially condemned the attack and the storming of the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Interestingly, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry used the term “Israeli occupation forces” in its statement published in Arabic.
Actually, this is the correct term to describe the Israeli forces in East Jerusalem as the region has been officially occupied since June 1967 and Israel must withdraw immediately.
It is worth mentioning that Egypt brokered the truce between Israel and Palestinian factions in Gaza a couple of months ago.
The clashes between the Palestinian protesters and the IOF continued till late Sunday at the Damascus Gate where the IOF used tear gases madly.
Again I do not understand the need for this provocation but I understand it must stop for real if the world is serious about peace.#شاهد خلال المواجهات التي اندلعت باب العامود بالقدس .. قوات الاحتلال تطلق القنابل الخانقة تجاه الشبان pic.twitter.com/de9qnO3VNl
