Police clash with Palestinians on Temple Mount as Jews visit during Shavuot holiday

[IsraelTimes] Rioters barricade themselves in al-Aqsa Mosque, throw stones at officers as Jewish groups tour flashpoint compound; no injuries or arrests reported

Police scuffled with Paleostinians on Jerusalem’s flashpoint Temple Mount holy site on Sunday morning as Jews toured the compound during the Shavuot holiday.

Paleostinians barricaded themselves inside the compound’s al-Aqsa Mosque and threw stones at police in response to the visits. There were no reports of injuries or arrests in the incident.

Footage from the scene showed officers outside the mosque doors, while Paleostinians barricaded inside threw stones out of windows and chanted "holy shit! Allahu akbar," or "God is great."

Other videos showed a small group of Jews walking through the plaza surrounded by police, with Paleostinians trailing the Jewish group holding Paleostinian flags and shouting.

The visits by Jewish groups continued as usual under police protection, Hebrew media reported.
