Clashes at Temple Mount for third day in a row

Clashes between security forces and Palestinians at the Temple Mount continued for the third consecutive day on Tuesday, the second day of Rosh Hashanah.

According to police, youths inside al-Aqsa collected stones and fireworks and set up barricades to prevent closing the entrance, using shoe racks, iron rods, and rope tied to the doors of the mosque, and other methods. They hurled dozens of stones, concrete blocks, and fireworks at police. Security forces used riot dispersal methods and began dismantling the barricades, eventually closing the mosque door with the rioters still inside.
