MK says 1,440 Jews on Temple Mount; Waqf says 1,023

MK Yehudah Glick, a Temple Mount activist, confirms to The Times of Israel that 1,440 Jewish visitors ascended the Temple Mount Sunday, which would mark an unprecedented amount of visitors for the day.

However, Firas al-Dibis, the media coordinator of the Waqf, puts the number at 1,023, according to PA state-run news outlet WAFA.

Police have yet to respond to The Times of Israel with an official tally.
