RAMALLAH, Monday, News about the ongoing tension in the occupied city of Jerusalem hit the front pages of the three Arabic Palestinian dailies on Monday.

Al-Hayat al-Jadida, al-Ayyam and al-Quds said that the Israeli foreign minister Yair Lapid last night stormed Jerusalem’s Damascus Gate area under protection from the Israeli police.

The paper said that the Israeli settler fanatics attacked Palestinians’ homes in the old city of Hebron, south of the occupied West Bank.

Mohammad Mraweh Kabaha, a Palestinian from the village of Tura al-Gharbiya in the West Bank province of Jenin, was sentenced to a life in Israeli prisons and a fine of three million shekels ($936,600), according to al-Hayat al-Jadida.

Al-Quds said that 164 Israeli settlers broke into Jerusalem’s Aqsa mosque.

The Israeli occupation authorities today banned a senior official of the Muslim Waqf (endowment) department from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem’s Old City for six months, as reported in al-Hayat al-Jadida.
