At least 163 Palestinians and six Israeli police officers have been hurt in clashes in Jerusalem, Palestinian medics and Israeli police say.
Most were injured at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, where Israeli police fired rubber bullets and stun grenades as Palestinians threw stones and bottles.
Tensions have been rising over the potential eviction of Palestinians from land claimed by Jewish settlers.
The Red Crescent has opened a field hospital to treat the wounded.
The Al-Aqsa mosque complex in Jerusalem's Old City is one of Islam's most revered locations, but its location is also the holiest site in Judaism, known as the Temple Mount.

(36,142 posts)Can you explain why? Also I've meant to ask this long ago, but do you actually see Palestinians as human beings deserving of the same rights as others? Just a gentle suggestion, but if you do, maybe you could try a bit harder to get that across in your posts...

I'm going to guess that because this is a progressive discussion board, that a statement like that would probably get called out for being inflammatory, narrow-minded, and bigoted. And rightfully so.
But your comment is ok? How, exactly?
