Overnight clashes in Jaffa between Palestinians and police forces

Monday 19-April-2021

Violent clashes broke out last night in the Arab city of Jaffa in the 1948 occupied lands (Israel) between Palestinian residents and police forces after extremist Jewish citizens staged a march in its streets.

Several Palestinian young men were reportedly arrested or injured during the events.

Israeli forces also assaulted Sheikh Ahmed Abu Ajwa Imam of the Hasan Beik Mosque in Jaffa.

Local sources said that Palestinian young men responded by throwing stones and firing firecrackers at police forces during the events.

The clashes started after Jewish settlers staged a provocative march in Jaffa streets.

Jaffa City is exposed to ongoing Judaization attempts where Israeli companies and Jewish groups always seek to take over Palestinian property and sites.
