200,000 worshipers performed Isha and Tarawih prayers tonight in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque on Friday.

The Islamic Endowments Department in Jerusalem said, in a statement, that 200,000 worshipers performed the Isha and the Tarawih prayers in the blessed Al Aqsa Mosque despite the strict measures and restrictions imposed by the Israeli occupation authorities on their entry after a quarter of a million Palestinians performed Friday prayers in the vicinity of Al-Aqsa.

In a separate context, dozens of Palestinians were suffocated by poisonous gas during the occupation forces’ suppression of the participants in the weekly anti-settlement march, east of Nablus, in Beit Dajan.

Local sources reported, in statements, that the occupation forces fired bullets, poison gas bombs, and sound bombs at the participants in the march, as a result of which more than 40 of them suffocated.

The occupation forces continue to target Palestinians in the various occupied territories, and increased the pace of their operations during the holy month of Ramadan. (QNA)
