Occupied Jerusalem - Arab Today
At least five Palestinian worshipers were injured and four others detained by Israeli police during clashes which erupted on Sunday morning after Jewish fanatics broke into the yards of al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem, according to local sources.
Media coordinator of the Jordan-run Islamic Waqf Feras Debes told (WAFA) News Agency that eight extremist Jewish settlers accompanied by Israeli policemen broke into the compound through the Moroccan Gate, a practice which rarely occurs during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, provoking clashes with Muslim worshipers who attempted to compel them to leave the site.
Israeli police then, Debes added, attacked the worshipers with stun grenades rubber-coated bullets as well as physically assaulted many others, injuring at least five of them. The police also detained four worshipers, including three South Africans.
