According to Al Jazeera, far-right Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir again entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound with a group of settlers on August 31, 2026.

Al Jazeera described the visit as a storming of the compound by Ben-Gvir and the settlers.

The entry violated a long-standing status quo arrangement agreed upon by Israel and Jordan, according to the report.
