Dozens of people have been injured in fresh clashes between Palestinians and Israeli security forces on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem’s Old City, referred to by Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary.
The violence on the last Friday of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan left about 42 people wounded, the Palestinian news agency reported.
The report said there had been repeated confrontations on the Temple Mount in the past two weeks, while the security situation across Israel remained tense after a wave of attacks.
According to the police, hundreds of people, some of them masked, had provoked unrest at the holy site.
