Israeli soldiers attacked, Thursday dawn, many Muslim worshipers in the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem after dozens of soldiers invaded its courtyards through the al-Magharba gate.

The soldiers fired many gas bombs at the Palestinians to force them out of the holy compound, causing many to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation.

The army also used drones to fire the gas bombs at the Palestinians and occupied many rooftops after surrounding the holy compound.

The WAFA Palestinian News Agency said approximately 250.000 worshipers made it to the holy site to pray in Al-Aqsa to mark the al-Qader Night (the holies night in Islam).

Thousands of soldiers and police officers were also deployed in the Old City and around Al-Aqsa before installing many roadblocks.
