Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday called for ’calm on all sides’ after several nights of unrest in Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem.

Jerusalem - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday called for"calm on all sides" after several nights of unrest in Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem.

"First of all we want to ensure that law and order are respected... now we demand compliance with the law and I call for calm on all sides," Netanyahu said in a statement after the security talks. On Thursday, at least 125 people were injured when Palestinian protesters, angered by chants of"death to Arabs" from far-right Jewish demonstrators, clashed repeatedly with police.

"The rhetoric of extremist protesters chanting hateful and violent slogans must be firmly rejected," State Department spokesman Ned Price tweeted. The office of Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas condemned"the growing incitement by extremist far-right Israeli settler groups advocating for the killing of Arabs".
