Violent clashes broke out early Friday morning between Palestinians and Israeli police at a Jerusalem holy site on the concurrence of several major religious holidays.

At least 150 people were injured, according to the Red Crescent, as police used stun grenades and rubber bullets to disperse a crowd of Palestinians, some waving Hamas flags, after a small group gathered stones and other items to throw at Jewish worshippers during a protest at the Temple Mount, as reported by the Jerusalem Post.
