May 26, 2025

"Thousands of nationalist Israelis descended to Damascus Gate, one of the main entrances. Right-wing activists held banners that read "67 - #Jerusalem in our hands; 2025 - #Gaza in our hands".

Arab traders in the Muslim Quarter who had yet to close their shops were harassed by young #Israeli men, witnesses said.

Chants of "May your village burn" and "Your home will be ours" were heard throughout the march. "
