Israeli Air Force Strikes Gaza and Detains Hundreds Amid Tensions with Hamas.
TL;DR Summary
The Israeli Air Force struck Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip after a barrage of rockets was launched at nearby Israeli towns from the enclave throughout the early hours of the day, amid a spike in violence at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount as Ramadan coincided with the arrival of the Passover holiday. Clashes erupted between the Israel Police and Palestinians inside the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem overnight. Police said they had entered to dislodge “agitators” who had barricaded themselves inside with fireworks, clubs and stones. On Wednesday morning, authorities said 350 people had been detained in the unrest.
