Later on Saturday evening, clashes renewed between Palestinian worshippers and Israeli police outside Al-Aqsa Mosque. Live broadcasts near the compound showed a group of policemen beating and kicking a protestor lying on the ground.
The Arab League repeatedly condemned the Israeli practices at Al-Aqsa Mosque as a blatant breach of the right of worship and violation of relevant international laws and UN resolutions.
