Israeli settlers, including a minister, storm Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, performing rituals and raising flags.

On May 26, 2025, hundreds of Israeli settlers, including Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in East Jerusalem, raising Israeli flags and performing Jewish rituals. This act, condemned by Turkey, Jordan, and Palestinian groups, is seen as an attempt to alter the historical and demographic status of the site. The incident occurred during "Jerusalem Day," marking Israel's capture of East Jerusalem in 1967.
