TV: Palestinians stocked rocks for Temple Mount riots, police caught unawares [View all]
In the days leading up to Friday’s mass rioting in the Temple Mount compound Palestinians had stockpiled stone slabs, rocks and fireworks around the site, according to a Saturday television report.
The Channel 12 report indicated police would look into why it had not managed to get wind of the preparations for the violent clashes at the holy site.
The clashes and riots at the compound that hosts the Al-Qasa Mosque followed prayers held there on the last Friday of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. At least 200 Palestinians and 17 Israeli police officers were wounded during the events.
