BETHLEHEM, PALESTINE - 2014/10/31: A masked Palestinian youth hurls a rock at the Israeli watch tower in Bethlehem, West Bank. various Palestinian politicians and leaders declared the day a Day of Rage in the West Bank. This came following an unprecedented closure of Al Aqsa on Thursday morning, which was the first time the holy site was closed to Muslim and Palestinian worshippers since 1967. It was later re-opened but heavy restrictions were placed on Palestinians trying to enter the mosque. The closure of the third holiest site in Islam came after the attempted assassination of a right wing Israeli extremist- Yehuda Glick, by a Palestinian gunman. The gunman, Mutaz Hijazi, 32, was later shot by Israeli special forces in his home town of Silwan, a Palestinian neighborhood in Annexed East Jerusalem. Following Hijazis death, tensions between Palestinians and Israelis rose to a boiling point. On Friday, the Muslim day of prayer, only men over the age 50 were allowed into Al Aqsa, following a three week restriction period on Palestinians trying to pray at the mosque. Hijazi is the second Palestinian Jerusalemite to be shot dead by Israeli forces in the past few weeks. (Photo by Anna Ferensowicz/Pacific Press/LightRocket via Getty Images)
