30 Arabs Arrested in Rosh Hashanah Riots on Temple Mount


(Israel Hayom) Efrat Forsher - 30 Arabs were arrested over Rosh Hashanah weekend, following several riots on the Temple Mount compound in Jerusalem. The riots began Wednesday when dozens of Arabs began stoning security forces stationed in the compound. The riots resumed on Friday, following the end of the weekly prayer service in the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
