Jordan’s King Abdullah has tried with little avail to reduce tensions in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Israeli forces have carried out near-daily raids and operations in the occupied Palestinian territories this past week, including three raids on al-Aqsa Mosque.
At least 152 Palestinians were wounded on Friday when Israeli forces fired rubber-coated steel bullets, teargas and stun grenades inside the courtyards and prayer halls of the mosque.
