Clashes continue at Jerusalem’s al-Aqsa
Third street battle this week in Jerusalem’s Old City between Israeli police and Palestinian protesters.
24 Feb 2012
Israeli police and hundreds of Muslim worshippers have continued to battle near the al-Aqsa mosque.
In the third street battle this week, Israeli police on Friday fired tear gas at stone-throwing Palestinian protesters.
The disputes are said to have been sparked by fears that far-right Israeli activists were planning to enter Muslim-controlled areas at the site which is known to Muslims as the Haram al-Shareef and to Jews as Temple Mount.
