The Temple Mount reopened for all Muslims amid tension


This is a first for a long time in Jerusalem. Friday, Israel has left tens of thousands of Muslims perform their prayers at the great mosque Al-Aqsa, the third holiest site in Islam but also the most sacred place for Jews.


One measure of appeasement obtained yesterday by the US Secretary of State John Kerry during talks in Jordan with Israeli, Palestinian and Jordanian leaders.


An important safety device had been set up at the doors and in the Old City that overlooks the plaza. There was no incident.


Clashes took place in rematch between young Palestinians and IDF soldiers in the West Bank occupied by Israel since 1967. The tension will be very strong and incidents multiply especially at the crossing of Qalqilya and some Israeli settlers Hebron, where a Palestinian youth was killed Tuesday by Israeli soldiers during clashes.
