Tens of thousands performed Friday prayers at the holy Al-Aqsa Mosque, despite the strict military measures imposed by the Israeli occupation forces at the gates and entrances of the Old City in occupied Jerusalem. The Islamic Awqaf Department in Jerusalem estimated that about 50,000 worshipers performed Friday prayers in the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Occupation forces deployed in the streets of the city and the vicinity of Al-Aqsa Mosque, stationed at its gates, stopped the worshipers and checked their identity cards, local sources told the Palestinian News Agency (Wafa).
