Israel’s far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, along with 2,250 extremist Jews, raided the al-Aqsa Mosque in East Jerusalem under police protection during the Jewish day of mourning, “Tisha BeAv.” The group performed religious rituals while Palestinians were blocked from entering. The raid drew condemnation from Jordan and Egypt, both accusing Israel of violating international law and the historical status of Jerusalem. The incident has escalated tensions in the region.
More than 100 people were detained in Los Angeles, USA, after protests against immigration raids by ICE turned violent. Demonstrators clashed with police and set vehicles on fire near the federal detention center downtown.
Mayor Karen Bass blamed “marginal groups” for the violence, stating, “This has nothing to do with real immigrant rights protests.” She urged the Trump administration to halt immigration operations, calling them a source of fear and chaos.
