Police on Wednesday, the first day of Chol Hamoed in Eretz Yisrael, used force against dozens of Jews who requested to go onto Har HaBayis. They arrived at Mugrabi Gate during the time allocated for Jews.
Some of the visitors told the press police used brutal force against them and distanced them from the area. Police report that when the group refused to leave they were removed using justifiable force.

So stay away from there. Jews cannot go on Har HaBayis. That is the psak from all rabbonim from all respected streams of Yiddishkeit, without exception. From the chassidishe to the litvishe to the sefardische to the tzionishe (cq the Chief Rabbinate of the State of Israel).
