On Tuesday, Israeli occupation forces stormed the towns of Jabal al-Mukaber and Silwan in occupied Jerusalem. In addition, armed Israeli colonial settlers invaded the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the third-holiest site in the Islamic religion worldwide.
Local sources reported that the Israeli occupation forces stormed Jabal al-Mukaber with large forces of the army and police, and sent reinforcements to al-Ain Street in the town of Silwan.

Earlier Tuesday, the Israeli occupation forces stormed Qalandia camp north of Jerusalem, and deployed their forces in several neighborhoods, and the soldiers climbed onto the roofs of some Palestinian homes.
Eyewitnesses reported that the Israeli occupation forces fired live bullets and tear gas canisters during the raid, without any injuries being reported.
Meanwhile, dozens of armed Israeli paramilitary settlers stormed the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem on Tuesday, under the protection of the Israeli occupation police.
Eyewitnesses reported that the settlers stormed Al-Aqsa in successive groups, carried out provocative tours, and performed Talmudic rituals in its courtyards .
These provocations have significantly increased over the past several months, as Israeli officials have repeatedly encouraged the right-wing colonial Israeli settlers to repeatedly invade the Al-Aqsa Mosque to provoke a confrontation with the Palestinian Muslims worshiping there.
