Local activist Mona al-Kurd said that settlers threw stones at local residents in Sheikh Jarrah and tried to storm homes under police escort and verbally attacked families with insults and threats.

Al-Kurd added that police officers stormed the house of al-Qasem family on allegations of looking for a young man accused of throwing stones at settlers and forces.

Consequently, local youths clashed with the police forces and showered them and settlers with firecrackers.

Later, the police used a skunk carrying truck to spray jets of stinky liquid at the young men during the events. (ILKHA)
