Israel bans Eid prayers at Al-Aqsa Mosque, citing security restrictions
Israeli authorities have banned Eid al-Fitr prayers at Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem, citing security restrictions imposed amid the war against Iran.

Israeli police have previously used batons, sound grenades and tear gas against Palestinians who prayed outside the Old City’s walls in protest against restrictions on Al-Aqsa during Ramadan.

Palestinian traders, who declined to be named, fearing Israeli reprisals, said the restrictions had left them in severe economic distress.
