Here are a couple of times that Ma'an used the word "witnesses" over the last couple of days:

Witnesses said Abd al-Rahman al-Shaludi, 20, was shot by Israeli guards at the light rail station after he lost control of his vehicle and hit commuters standing nearby.

They told Ma'an that al-Shaludi exited his vehicle after striking the pedestrians, at which point he was shot in the back by the guards. They stressed that the incident appeared to be an accident.
Now that we know how trustworthy Ma'an's "witnesses" are, we can understand these other articles:

From Friday:
Witnesses said that Israeli forces assaulted young worshipers as they attempted to enter the Old City through Damascus Gate to pray morning prayers earlier on.
I've looked at lots of videos of the events last Friday and the only assaults I've seen were from Arab Muslim women attacking Jews and Israeli police.
Eyewitnesses said the Israelis performed Jewish religious rites including "singing and dancing" near Bab al-Rahma (Gate of Mercy), also known as the Golden Gate. During the rites, witnesses added, the Israelis verbally attacked Muslim worshipers.

The eyewitnesses said that the director of the Al-Aqsa Mosque along with security guards and worshipers confronted the visitors, "forcing Israeli police officers to move them out" after having initially failed to do so.
I've watched dozens of videos of Jews on the Temple Mount, and never have I seen any of them sing anything or verbally attacking anyone from the holy spot. As soon as they leave the Chain Gate, however, they often break out into song. Apparently, that is what is being referred to here.

See how reliable Arab "eyewitnesses" are?
