At least 26 Palestinians were injured on Thursday evening while six others including a woman were arrested when clashes broke out in Bab Al-Amoud one of the gates of the old city of occupied Jerusalem.
The clashes erupted after Israeli Special Forces violently suppressed a sit-in organized to protest US President Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) crew members treated 26 cases that were assaulted by Israeli police while one was transferred to hospital to receive treatment.
Palestinians continued to protest for the second consecutive week across occupied Palestinian territories against US decision to recognize occupied Jerusalem as the capital of Israel amid international condemnation.
