Guard who shot Palestinian to death released from custody
The Israeli security guard who shot east Jerusalem resident Samar Sarchan to death Wednesday morning has been released from detention under limiting conditions after posting bail.
The riots in the capital have died down, and security forces are patrolling the main routes in a bid to prevent an additional escalation. According to the police, eight people have been arrested on suspicion of rioting – five on the Temple Mount and the rest near the Old City. (Yair Altman)
