Israeli settlers storm Al-Aqsa compound under police protection, perform rituals

Around 100 Israeli settlers entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem, performing Talmudic rituals under Israeli police protection, according to the Jerusalem Governorate. This is a recurring provocative action that risks inflaming tensions in the occupied territories, though the immediate impact is limited. The incident underscores ongoing friction at the holy site, a frequent flashpoint for regional unrest.
