According to Palestinian media reports, before Hamas took action, a large number of Israelis recently entered the "Noble Forbidden City" in the Old City of Jerusalem, which Israel calls the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount. This location has long been one of the focal points of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
Since the beginning of this year, tensions in the Palestinian-Israeli region have intensified. The Israeli army has carried out many raids in many places in the West Bank, and conflicts with the Palestinians have continued. The two sides also broke out in the Gaza Strip, Jerusalem and other places, causing a large number of casualties.
