Settlers storm Al-Aqsa as Netanyahu visits Jerusalem tunnels

Israeli settlers stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem over the weekend, performing prayers in the courtyard, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited tunnels beneath the Old City and prayed at the Western Wall ahead of Yom Kippur. The Palestinian Jerusalem governorate reported about 570 settlers entered the site by Sunday morning. Hamas condemned the incursions as a blatant attack on Al-Aqsa's identity.
