Israeli police report a terrorist attack on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. According to eyewitnesses, several Palestinians approached the temple complex, and one of them threw a petrol bomb in the direction of the police post. According to Israeli media, one of the police officers was seriously injured and was subsequently taken to hospital.
At this time, law enforcement officers blocked all entrances to the temple complex and began to evacuate those tourists and local residents who were already there. But at that very moment, dozens of Palestinians, as reported by The Jerusalem Post, rushed to the police. A fight ensued.
According to some reports, the radical Palestinians decided to organize a protest action and a terrorist action in connection with the statement of Israeli Minister Gilad Erdan. Minister of Government Benjamin Netanyahu on the eve said that the construction of another mosque would not be allowed on the Temple Mount. According to the Palestinian media, Erdan said that the second mosque on the Temple Mount may prevent the Jewish population from praying there.
Religious issues in Jerusalem, as well as the status of the city itself, still remain an extremely sensitive issue when discussing Palestinian-Israeli relations.
Recall that some time ago, the US president announced the recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and then announced the existence of a plan for "making a deal of the century in the Middle East." When this plan Trump is going to start to implement (if it is going), is not reported yet.
