Police expel Jewish group from Temple Mount, citing provocations

Ir Amim's Aviv Tatarsky said that despite today’s events, there is a growing trend of cooperation between police and Jewish visitors at the compound. “This is not the first time the Temple [Mount] activists have abused their right to visit there in order to breach the status quo,” he said. “The worrying thing is that in recent months the police, in various ways, has been assisting the Temple groups that arrive at the compound. The incident today is a wake-up call to the police to cease cooperation with this extremist group and perform its duty on the Temple Mount without bias,” he added.
