Hundreds of ultra-Orthodox people blocked an intersection on Shmuel Hanavi Street in Jerusalem for three hours. The protesters blocked buses and shouted "release the body, release the dead".

So far, the police have arrested five rioters in Jerusalem who attacked police officers and threw objects, and one of them on suspicion of trying to steal a weapon from a police officer. Dozens of Haredim also demonstrated outside Abu Kabir. They tried to break through the gate and confronted the police on the spot.
