Palestinians Mark the 1st Anniversary of the Third Intifada

  • 8 years ago
Thousands of Palestinian youth in the besieged Gaza Strip have taken part in what they are calling an 'electronic demonstration' to mark the first anniversary of the Al-Quds uprising, or the third Intifada, which broke out on October 1st, 2015. The popular uprising was sparked by Israel's restrictions on Palestinians' right to pray in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, Islam's third holiest site. Tensions grew out of control and extended to include wider parts of the occupied Palestinian territories in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and Israel. Our Correspondent Noor Harazeen has the latest.
