Israeli minister leads 1,100 settlers into Al-Aqsa compound on Sukkot

National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir led over 1,100 Israeli settlers into the Al-Aqsa complex, including the Buraq Wall, on Sunday, marking a provocative escalation during Sukkot. The move, which violates longstanding status quo arrangements, risks inflaming tensions in Jerusalem and the wider region. Unclear if this will trigger a significant Palestinian or regional response.
