Dozens Injured In New Jerusalem Clashes

The fresh violence, a day after more than 200 people were wounded at the mosque, prompted international calls for an end to the violence.

Dozens more people were injured Saturday as Israeli police fired water cannon and rubber bullets to disperse Palestinian protesters in annexed east Jerusalem, a day after fierce clashes at the city's Al-Aqsa mosque. The fresh violence, a day after more than 200 people were wounded at the mosque, prompted international calls for an end to the violence. Police said they dispersed the protest in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood where demonstrators had thrown stones at security forces. On the border with the Gaza Strip, troops fired tear gas toward Palestinian protesters, as officials said three incendiary balloons were launched into Israel, causing fires but no injuries.
