Israeli police on Sunday entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem’s Old City to secure the way for Jewish visitors to the flashpoint holy site, fueling clashes that left 17 Palestinians wounded, according to Palestinian medical workers

. Violence in Jerusalem between Israeli security forces and Palestinian demonstrators a year ago escalated into an 11-day Gaza war.

Israeli police accused Palestinians of “defiling and desecrating” a holy site, while Palestinian officials accused Israel of trying to divide the sensitive holy site. “What happened in Al-Aqsa Mosque is a dangerous escalation, the repercussions of which are to be borne by the Israeli government alone,” said Nabil Abu Rdeneh, spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

The police cleared Palestinians out of the sprawling esplanade outside the mosque itself early Sunday, while dozens of Palestinians remained inside the building chanting “God is Greatest.” Video released by police showed small groups of youths throwing stones, as well as fireworks being fired from inside the mosque.

Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett ordered additional security on public buses going to the Old City after a situation assessment with top defense officials. Jordan, which serves as custodian of the holy site, issued a statement condemning Israel’s actions, saying they undermine “all efforts made to maintain the comprehensive calm and prevent the escalation of violence that threatens security and peace.”

Such practices have fueled concerns among Palestinians that Israel is plotting to take over the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound or partition it. Israel strongly denies such claims, saying it is committed to protecting freedom of worship for all.

PROVING ONCE AGAIN THAT RELIGION KILLS

See when it comes to Israeli bullies, it is called a clash, when it is peaceful Palestinians fighting back, it is called terrorism. If the world could support Palestinians like they do w Ukrainians, Palestinians could escape their daily open prison ruled by Israeli occupiers.

Who are the Palestinians? Israelis are Palestinians themselves

free Palestine.shameful Jews shame shame

Such religious people. Such examples to follow.

Ummmm. Not Ukraine. Nothing to see here.

Two very I’ll behaved children, both should be slapped and put in their corners. The Israeli response may seem disproportionate from afar but Palestinians shouldn’t also prevent the right to practice their religion to Jewish people.

Funded by the United States.

Palestine 🇵🇸 will be free

😡😡😭😭😭

Jerusalem, site of the Easter story, faces a fraught timeThe thing about Jerusalem’s Old City, where I’ve just been, is that it’s tiny. The Holy Places, the sites of the Easter story commemorated this week, are all in walking distance. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre has the very place, according to tradition, where Christ was crucified; under the altar you can put your hand in a hole to feel the rock of Golgotha, the place of the skull. A few feet away is the stone slab where Christ was, reputedly, anointed before he was buried. Nearby is the Holy Sepulchre, the tomb where he was interred and rose from the dead, a most spine-tingling place.

Moment of mass shooting that killed two juveniles and injured nineVideo posted online shows partygoers in an apparent argument before a shooting at an Airbnb in Pittsburgh early Sunday morning, causing hundreds to flee the scene in fear.
