Israeli police storm Al Aqsa compound, injure 20 Palestinians
2021-05-22
[DAILYTIMES.PK] A few hours into a ceasefire agreement reached between the Israeli government and Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,, which governs the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
strip, Israeli police were reported to have stormed the compound of the al-Aqsa mosque once more on Friday.

Several Arab media outlets reported the forces launched tear gas shells and fired rubber bullets.

Al Jazeera journalist Arwa Ibrahim also reported stun grenades being launched at worshipers, "Back to square one?" she asked.

Citing Red Islamic Thingy, she said at least 20 people were maimed.

Ibrahim shared footage from the compound, showing worshipers scrambling amid loud explosions in the background.

The worshipers had stayed back after Friday prayers to celebrate the truce.

"They were singing and chanting when a contingent of the Israeli police [stationed] next to the compound came into the compound and started using crowd control measures that they use all the time, including stun grenades, smoke bombs and tear gas," Al Jazeera’s Imran Khan
...aka The Great Khan, who ain't the sharpest bulb on the national tree...
, who was reporting from occupied East Jerusalem, said.
That would be an action of the Islamic Movement - Northern Branch, the militant arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in Israel, which goes in for riots and harassing Jews on the Temple Mount via their Israeli Arab Mourabitoun cadres, funding Hamas, and social services in Arab villages in the Galilee.
"They started firing in that crowd in an effort to try and disperse them."

Israeli strikes on Gaza have killed 232 Paleostinians,
...while Israel reports killing at least 225 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad members, including a number of senior officers of both organizations, suggesting the Hamas authorities are a bit off on their numbers...
including 65 children, and have maimed another 1,900, according to the Gaza health ministry.

Vast areas have been reduced to rubble and some 120,000 people have been displaced, according to Hamas authorities.

On the Israeli side, 12 people, including two children, have died.

The truce brokered by Egypt, which also included Gaza’s second-most powerful group, Islamic Jihad
...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...
, was agreed upon in the early hours of Friday, following mounting international pressure to stem the bloodshed which erupted on May 10.

The violence was triggered after police action at al-Aqsa mosque during the Ramadan fasting month.
Al Ahram points out:
"Hundreds of people threw rocks and petrol bombs at police officers who responded at the scene and began dispersing the rioters," Israeli police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said in a statement.

#2  Lots of battlefields, Abu Uluque, and the jihadis switch from one to the other as best suits the moment. The war will not end until there are no more Jews between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.

Hamas got exactly the ceasefire it wanted, which means that the IDF stopped attacking, and various supporters started sending in supplies and money.

#1  So it would seem Hamas didn't get quite the cease fire agreement they wanted.
