Iran Press/ Middle East: The Islamic Endowments Department in Al-Quds estimated the number of worshippers at about 100,000 who defied all restrictions and arbitrary measures by the Zionist regime.
Palestinians from occupied Al-Quds, including men, women, and children, who joined since the early morning hours from all the neighborhoods, towns, and villages surrounding Al-Quds, in addition to the cities of the West Bank, took part in the prayer
At the end of the prayer, Palestinians at the Mosque's outer gates and in its courtyards embraced the worshippers and distributed sweets.
Al-Aqsa is not only revered by Muslims across the globe but has also become symbolic of Palestinian culture and its existence.
Over the past years, the al-Aqsa Mosque compound has seen a sharp rise in Israeli settlers storming the compound and performing rituals there in violation of the status quo.
The conditions of these days in the occupied territories, especially in the West Bank, are very special, and the Palestinian fighters respond to the countless crimes of the Zionists by any means.
