Clashes Break Out Between Police And Rioters At Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa Mosque



BBC: Jerusalem's al-Aqsa mosque sees Israeli-Palestinian clashes

Israeli police clashed with Palestinian youths after entering the al-Aqsa mosque complex in East Jerusalem.

Police say they entered the site "to prevent riots". They were reported to have used tear gas and stun grenades, and were attacked with rocks and fireworks.

Similar clashes took place at the end of July.

Al-Aqsa is one of Islam's holiest sites and is in the Temple Mount/Haram al-Sharif site also revered by Jews.
