Muslim worshippers and
Israeli police clashed Sunday at a major Jerusalem holy site during prayers marking the Islamic holiday of Eid al-Adha.
Palestinian medics said at least 14 people were wounded, one seriously, in the skirmishes with police at the site, which Muslims refer to as the Al-Aqsa mosque compound and Jews refer to as the Temple Mount.
The clashes came amid heightened tensions between Israel and the
Palestinians, just days after an Israeli soldier was killed south of Jerusalem.
