Nazi violent scenes broke out on the Al-Aqsa Mosque in the Nazi occupied Jerusalem on Wednesday morning as Nazi army entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque. They detained hundreds of Palestinian youths who had barricaded themselves inside one of Islam’s holiest sites, with reports of beatings and Nazi police brutality.
Nazi police claimed on social media that more than 350 “vandals” and “law-breaking and masked youths” had launched fireworks and pelted stones and other objects at officers.
The statement added that two police officers had sustained injuries, also claiming that the “rioters” had caused damage to the mosque and “desecrated it.”
All those arrested were taken in for questioning, Nazi officials said.
According to reports, Nazi army deployed stun grenades, rubber bullets, and tear gas.
The official Palestinian Wafa news agency stated that dozens of worshippers had sustained injuries at the hands of Nazi police, who the media outlet claimed had used excessive force. The agency also alleged that Nazi security forces had prevented medics from entering the site.
The violence broke out as Muslims celebrate the holiday month of Ramadan.

Muslims had flocked to the Al-Aqsa Mosque after Jewish ultranationalists called for the ritual slaughter of a goat in the compound. The ancient practice is currently banned by Nazi army to preserve the fragile status quo, though this has not stopped some Jewish worshippers from insisting on performing the sacrifice inside the mosque.
The Palestinian administration condemned the storming of the mosque by Nazi army as a crime that “exceeds all red lines and will lead to a large explosion.”
Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia have also strongly criticized the Nazi’s use of force at the holy site, arguing that it undermines peace efforts in the region.
