Occupied Jerusalem: Tens of thousands of Palestinians performed on Friday the Isha and Taraweeh prayers on the 21st day of the holy month of Ramadan at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, despite the strict military measures imposed by Israeli occupation authorities.

The Islamic Waqf department in Jerusalem reported that, despite heavy rain and biting cold, tens of thousands performed the prayers in the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem.

Israeli authorities continue to prevent thousands of Palestinians from the West Bank from reaching Jerusalem to pray at Al-Aqsa Mosque.
