The most senior Islamic cleric in Jerusalem said Sunday that Zionist police hurled stun grenades into al-Aqsa mosque to quell the latest protests.
East Jerusalem Mufti: Israel Threw Stun Grenades into Al Aqsa
Enemy police said officers threw the non-lethal devices, which emit a loud noise, on a plaza outside the mosque.
The demonstrators, who have confronted police for the past four days in a bid to stop Israeli and foreign visitors from entering the holy compound, then retreated into al-Aqsa, a police spokesman said.

Grand Mufti Mohammad Hussein said he was present at Sunday's protests and said police "threw the sound bombs into the (al-Aqsa) mosque itself".
Sheikh Hussein did not say how many grenades landed inside the mosque. "We condemn this is unacceptable and very dangerous escalation," he added.
Sheikh Hussein said the Zionist police also fired tear gas and rubber bullets at the protesters, but only outside the mosque, injuring five people.
Tension has been high in Al-Quds over threats by extremist Jewish groups, which have called on supporters to force their way into the holy compound during the weeklong Jewish Passover holiday, the last day of which is celebrated Sunday.
