Latest: 205 injured in Israeli attacks across East Jerusalem
Eighty-eight injured Palestinians were taken to hospitals in Jerusalem while others were treated as outpatients, Anadolu Agency (AA) quoted the Palestinian Red Crescent's statement.
JERUSALEM: The number injured rose to 205 in Israeli attacks late Friday at Al-Aqsa Mosque, Damascus Gate of the Old City and the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood in East Jerusalem.
Eighty-eight were taken to hospitals in Jerusalem, while others were treated as outpatients, Anadolu Agency (AA) quoted the Palestinian Red Crescent's statement.
Most of the injuries were caused by rubber bullets fired by Israeli police, it added.
Palestine Red Crescent established a field hospital in the region because of a lack of beds at hospitals.
Israeli police attempted to disperse worshippers inside the Haram al-Sharif area of Al-Aqsa Mosque on Friday, using stun grenades and gas bombs.
Police attacked Muslim worshippers inside the Al-Aqsa Mosque while worshippers were performing tarawih -- special night prayers -- during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Al-Aqsa Mosque is the world's third-holiest site for Muslims. Jews call the area the "Temple Mount," claiming it was the site of two Jewish temples in ancient times.
Israel occupied East Jerusalem, where Al-Aqsa is located, during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war. It annexed the entire city in 1980 in a move never recognized by the international community.
