Palestinians and Israel Border Police clashed on Sunday in Jerusalem’s Old City during demonstrations over the disturbance of Muslim graves from nearby construction work.
The Times of Israel (ToI) reported that at least 10 Palestinian people were wounded when police threw stun grenades at protesters.
Tensions rose after several human bones were discovered in an area designated to become a promenade and public garden, located near the al-Yusufiya cemetery, a Muslim graveyard adjacent to the Old City walls.
During construction, human remains were unearthed, and groups of Palestinian residents rushed to the area for a mass prayer protest over the disturbance of the graves. The excavation was conducted by the Jerusalem municipality and the Nature and Parks Authority to develop the area near the northeast corner of the wall, not far from the Rockefeller Museum, as reported by Haaretz.
Israeli police indicated that dozens of rioters threw stones at officers and set a dumpster alight, which prompted police to respond with riot control means and arrest one person for disturbing the peace, ToI reported.
Haaretz said that the riot control means included the use of stun grenades and foam-coated bullets.

Maybe they’ll find the remnants of the Dolphins season. Boy do they STINK!!! A bunch of little sissies who are below the level of a highschool team. Hand off, hand off, pass incomplete, punt the ball. 3 and out. Ohhh, they “almost” had a 10 yard pass. Wow. The Dolphins are an embarrassment to the NFL and should be kicked out of the league. They don’t reach the minimum skill level. Barf.
Hmmm, I had assumed that with a name like “David” you might’ve been Jewish.
In moslem theology, human remains, hence cemeteries, are no longer of any value and anything can be done to them.
The only reason they’re getting upset is because Jews found the remains.
