The occupation turns Jerusalem into a military barracks

Today, Wednesday, the Israeli occupation authorities turned the occupied city of Jerusalem and its old town into a military barracks, under the pretext of securing the provocative "flag march", which settlement associations intend to organize tomorrow, Thursday.


The occupation authorities sent more than 3,000 policemen to occupied Jerusalem, and set up military checkpoints on the main roads, while announcing that they would close major axes and push more policemen into the city, on the eve of the so-called "media march", which will pass through the old neighborhoods of Jerusalem to land in Al-Buraq Square.


Ministers and Knesset members from the government coalition, led by the extremist Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, are participating in the provocative march.


The so-called "Temple" organizations and settlement groups called for the largest storming of Al-Aqsa on Thursday morning, and sought to recruit more than 5,000 settlers in the process of storming the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, which precedes the provocative march of flags.


The occupation government insists on directing the settlement's so-called "flag march" according to its plan, by passing through Damascus Gate and the Old City, which confirms its intention to escalate.
