Approximately 80,000 Palestinians flocked to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in the Old City of occupied East Jerusalem to perform the second Friday prayer of Ramadan despite Israeli restrictions, according to a statement from the Jerusalem Islamic Endowments Authority.
Palestinians who were not allowed to the mosque by the Israeli forces performed Friday prayers around the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Israel only allows men over the age of 55, women over the age of 50, and children under the age of 12 to enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
