Over 1,500 far-right Israelis, including National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, storm Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, prompting Jordan’s condemnation. Al Jazeera’s correspondent Nida Ibrahim reports Israeli settler groups harassing Palestinians during the annual Jerusalem Day Flag March—celebrating Israel’s occupation of the city in 1967 following the Six-Day War—as 3,000 police guard the procession through occupied East Jerusalem. The march, chanting anti-Arab slogans, violates international law designating East Jerusalem as occupied. Earlier, settlers attacked UNRWA headquarters, targeting the agency supporting Palestinian refugees. Palestinians in East Jerusalem face revocable residency, heightening fears of demographic erasure. The march’s culmination at the Western Wall underscores Israeli impunity amid Palestinian vulnerability. Nida frames this as systemic displacement and a reminder of the unresolved refugee crisis.
