(ANSA) - TEL AVIV, 08 MAY - Police on alert in Jerusalem.


   Clashes - limited for now - between Palestinian protesters and police are underway in Sheikh Jarrah, a predominantly Arab neighborhood of Jerusalem. The place has been the scene of violence for days due to the threatened eviction of over a dozen families from the place. Accidents - according to the media - are also reported along the border between Israel and Gaza.


    Meanwhile, the Temple Mount is crowded with Muslim faithful for Ramadan prayers: the media speak of 75,000 people. Part of them - Israeli Arabs - walked to the scene after the police stopped the buses that were traveling to the city gates. The Israeli police - deployed in force - reiterated that they will not allow the repetition of last night's incidents. (HANDLE).
