Palestinians barricaded themselves in the al-Aqsa mosque on Saturday night, with concerns that clashes would break out if police removed them from the site. As of the beginning of Fajr prayers on Sunday morning, entry to the complex was open and police had not entered to remove those inside.

Jewish visitors are set to visit the site from 7:00-11:30 a.m. on Sunday morning. It is unclear as of yet if police will remove Palestinian youths in the complex before the visits.

The Jordanian Foreign Ministry warned on Saturday night of "catastrophic consequences" if police forces go into al-Aqsa to remove Palestinians, stressing that such a move would push the situation "towards more tension and violence, for which everyone will pay the price."

The Israeli Foreign Ministry responded to the Jordanian statement later in the night, writing "Those who desecrate the sanctity of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and barricade themselves inside it are a dangerous mob, radicalized and incited by Hamas and other terror organizations."

"We call on Jordan, through the Waqf guards, to immediately remove from the Al-Aqsa Mosque these extremists who are planning to riot tomorrow during Muslim prayers on the Temple Mount and the Priestly Blessing at the Western Wall."
