Drone video has captured the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem void of worshippers at the onset of the third Friday of Ramadan. This absence is attributed to access restrictions imposed by Israeli authorities on various holy sites during the observance.
The restrictions have drawn attention amid heightened tensions in the region, leading to significant concerns among local communities regarding their rights to access religious areas.
