The settlers tried to practice Talmudic rituals in the holy mosque, while the worshipers shouted out protest slogans.

Meanwhile, the Israeli forces arrested nine Palestinians from the West Bank.

In a statement, the Palestinian Prisoner Club said that the troops nabbed three Palestinians from Jenin including two freed prisoners.

Two Palestinians were detained from Al Quds (occupied east Jerusalem), and two others from Ramallah and el Bierah.

A Palestinian Physics professor was arrested in Nablus and another from the village of Beit Fajjar near Bethlehem.
