JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Israeli police stormed Jerusalem’s al-Aqsa mosque compound Sunday, hurling stun grenades at Palestinians who threw rocks at them in another outbreak of violence at the holy city’s most sensitive site.
A medic for the Palestinian Red Crescent said 18 Palestinians were injured. Police reported that three officers were hurt.
The unrest, following a similar incident a month ago, did not appear to herald any immediate slide into widescale violence that could disrupt U.S.-led efforts to revive Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, suspended since December.
