Israel Under Bus
Palestinians  rioted across east Jerusalem on  Tuesday, throwing rocks, setting tires  and garbage bins ablaze and even using live fire against police forces deployed by the thousands  in the capital.The violence spread from one neighborhood to another.
The rioting erupted in the Muslim quarter of the Old City, along with the east Jerusalem neighborhoods of Wadi Joz, Ras el-Amud, Isawiya, the Shuafat refugee camp and Jebl Mukaber, among other locations.
In  Wadi Joz, mobs of rioters clashed with mounted police, who rode past  smoking trash bins that had been set alight in the neighborhood during  the melee.In Ras el-Amud, dozens of Palestinian youths, their  faces shrouded in scarves and keffiyehs, repeatedly clashed with  security forces throughout the day. The boom of stun grenades could be  heard echoing through the neighborhood’s alleyways, even from inside the  Old City, which is located across the Kidron Valley from the  neighborhood.
Rioting also erupted in Isawiya, in northeast Jerusalem, where dozens of Palestinians hurled rocks and burned tires as they clashed with border patrolmen.
In Jebl Mukaber, in the  capital’s southeast, dozens of youths approached a police force that had  been deployed nearby and began hurling rocks in their direction. The  rock-throwers were soon dispersed by police, and five of them were  arrested. Read more here
