Palestinians clash with Israeli forces on ‘Day of Rage’ in Bethlehem

 

Palestinian protesters clashed with Israeli forces in Bethlehem on Friday, on the sixth ‘Friday of Rage’ protest over US President Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

Footage from the scene shows Palestinians launching objects towards the Israeli soldiers, who respond by firing tear gas.

Palestinian factions had earlier called for a ‘Day of Rage’ after the conclusion of Friday prayers, the sixth since Trump’s decision.
