Friday of Rage in Palestine in Support of Al-Aqsa

Clashess

Eight Palestinians were injured on Friday after Israeli occupation forces opened fire on demonstrators during clashes following Friday prayers near the Qalandia checkpoint north of Jerusalem.

The march of hundreds to the flashpoint military checkpoint on the road between Ramallah and Jerusalem came as part of a Day of Rage across the West Bank in protest against Israeli occupation armys’ killing of a man early Thursday and the day-long closure of the Al-Aqsa mosque — the third holiest site in Islam — for the first time since 1967.
