Friday, violent confrontations were reported between Palestinians and the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) at Al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Jerusalem following Friday Prayer. According to witnesses, more than a hundred Palestinians were injured.

According to a Palestinian correspondant Christine Rinnawi, tens of thousands of worshippers went to the mosque to perform the prayer.

Palestinians reported the use of stun grenades and rubber bullets by the IOF in order to empty the mosque. 

Prior to the IOF aggression, Palestinians were celebrating the ceasefire in Gaza by raising Palestinian flags, chanting and passing out sweets.

Rinnawi said that attacking the holy mosque is a 'red line.'
