: the Jerusalem District Police will operate today (Friday) in increased preparation for Friday prayers on the Temple Mount.

This week, clashes broke out during the destruction of the home of the terrorist Udai Tamimi in the Shoafat refugee camp in East Jerusalem.

Masked terrorists threw pipe bombs at the forces, who responded by firing and using means to disperse demonstrations.

Two YSM police officers were slightly injured. During the destruction of the terrorist's house, a Palestinian was shot dead, identified as a gunman pointing a weapon at the forces. It later turned out to be a fake weapon.

In Silwan, too, the police acted against disturbances, which included throwing Molotov cocktails and shooting fireworks.

During the incident, two suspects were shot and seriously and moderately injured.

As mentioned, the fear is that the blockade in Jenin will heat up the already tense atmosphere.
