Arabs Riot on Temple Mount on Friday


(Jerusalem Post) Melanie Lidman - Riots broke out on the Temple Mount on Friday, Oct. 5. Towards the end of Friday prayers, hundreds of Muslim worshipers streamed out of the Al Aqsa mosque and started throwing stones at the soldiers and border police. An Arab man also attempted to stab a police officer next to one of the gates leading to the Temple Mount and was arrested. Rioters also threw rocks in the direction of the Western Wall plaza below which was filled with thousands of Jewish worshipers during the Succot holiday, but police officers were able to stop the rioters and did not have to evacuate the Jewish worshipers.
