May 10, 2021
HAMAS has fired seven rockets at Jerusalem over Israel's "crimes and aggression" after a holy mosque was stormed by cops, it has been reported.
The blast came moments after the nationalist organisation issued an ultimatum for Israel to withdraw security forces from two areas in the city.
Hamas claimed responsibility for the attack, branding it a retaliation for Israeli "crimes and aggression".
According to Israeli military, seven rockets had set off sirens in Jerusalem that rocket fire from Gaza was continuing into southern Israel.
At least one person has been injured.
The blast came as thousands of Israelis, including right-wing groups, joined a "Flag March" today, which is considered "Jerusalem Day" - an Israeli national holiday that celebrates the establishment of Israeli control over the Old City.
It comes after hundreds of people were injured as Palestinians clashed with Israeli cops as they stormed the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem.
Violence erupted for a third night in a row with many were struck by rubber bullets, stun grenades and tear gas ahead of a planned Jewish nationalist march.
At least 220 were injured when security forces charged Al-Aqsa, claiming that Palestinians had thrown fireworks and rocks at them.
More than a dozen tear gas canisters and stun grenades landed in the Al-Aqsa mosque, Islams third holiest site, according to Associated Press.
