Dozens of religious Jews, escorted by Israeli forces, enter the Al-Aqsa mosque compound on the eve of Passover, and after a night of clashes at Jerusalem’s flashpoint holy site.
Clashes erupted inside one of the holiest sites of Islam, the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem early Wednesday as Israeli police said they had entered to dislodge “agitators”, a move denounced as an “unprecedented crime” by the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas.
Hamas, which rules the Gaza Strip, called on Palestinians in the West Bank “to go en masse to the Al-Aqsa mosque to defend it”.
Israeli police said they had entered the mosque to dislodge “agitators” who had barricaded themselves inside with fireworks, sticks and stones.
