At least 42 Palestinians were injured on Thursday evening when Israeli occupation forces quelled scores of sit-inners near al-Asbat gate of al-Aqsa Mosque, according to PIC.

 

Israeli forces opened gunfire at the sit-inners resulting in the injury of many of them.

 

The sit-in, however, went on, it said.

 

Two of the wounded were in critical conditions as they were hit in the chest by rubber bullets.

 

All of the injured were taken to hospitals, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society. The society also revealed that Israeli troops threatened its teams and banned them from approaching al-Asbat gate and Wadi al-Joze area.

 

An Israeli trooper was moderately injured in the clashes that erupted in the vicinity of al-Aqsa Mosque.

 

The protesters chanted slogans affirming insistence on holding protest events and sit-ins as well as refusing to pass through metal detectors into the holy compound. They also demanded that Israeli occupation authorities revoke their racist measures and practices at the holy shrine.  

 

Clashes were also reported in al-Sahera gate at al-Aqsa Mosque and in al-Ram town north of the occupied al-Quds ('Jerusalem'), according to eyewitnesses who affirmed that an Israeli chopper was used to help in besieging the worshipers and sit-inners at the holy site.
