Tens of thousands of worshipers performed Friday prayer at Al-Aqsa Mosque / Al-Haram Al-Sharif despite restrictions imposed by Israeli occupation forces on those seeking to enter Jerusalem.

The Jerusalem Islamic Waqf Department said tens of thousands of worshipers performed Friday prayers at the mosque, according to Palestinian media reports.

Israeli occupation forces imposed strict restrictions on worshipers’ access to Al-Aqsa Mosque through military checkpoints surrounding Jerusalem. They also prevented dozens of young men from reaching the mosque after stopping them at checkpoints and iron barriers set up around the city, the Old City and the mosque.
