Tens of thousands peacefully attend 1st Friday prayers of Ramadan at Temple Mount

[IsraelTimes] Police report no unusual incidents after Hamas
...not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
urged worshipers to ’defend al-Aqsa’; Islamic Waqf estimates 80,000 people took part

Tens of thousands of Moslem worshipers took part in the first Friday prayers of Ramadan on the Temple Mount, and the prayers ended without incident, police said.

The Islamic Waqf, which administers the mosque compound, estimated that 80,000 people took part in the prayers. There was no immediate outside confirmation of those numbers.

More than 3,000 coppers and Border Police soldiers were deployed across the Old City of Jerusalem ahead of the prayers amid fears of disturbances, after the Hamas terror group had called on Paleostinian worshipers to barricade themselves inside the al-Aqsa Mosque.

However,
a woman is only as old as she admits...
a police statement said there were no "unusual" incidents.

Amid the expanded police presence, Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai, Jerusalem district commanders and Shin Bet security officials visited several command posts set up in the Old City and received real-time updates on the situation.

In a statement Thursday, Hamas had called on followers to "participate urgently in defending al-Aqsa Mosque against the aggression that lurks in these critical times."

In past years during Ramadan, Paleostinians have at times barricaded themselves inside the al-Aqsa Mosque, which is situated on the Temple Mount, some with explosives and rocks. Police operations to clear them out have often resulted in violence.

Last year, two consecutive nights of festivities between officers and Paleostinians at the mosque sparked barrages of rocket fire from Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
and the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
