Hundreds of Jordanians participated on Friday in a demonstration in solidarity with the Palestinians in Jerusalem, denouncing the Israeli measures at the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

New clashes broke out between the Israeli police and Palestinian demonstrators on Friday morning in the courtyard of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem, resulting in dozens of injuries.

A correspondent for AFP reported the start of a demonstration in which about 400 people participated, in front of the Al-Husseini Grand Mosque in downtown Amman after Friday prayers.

The participants carried Palestinian and Jordanian flags alongside banners, one of which read "Resistance to occupation is a right and duty," and another "Al-Aqsa is a red line."

The situation remains tense in the Al-Haram Al-Qudsi this third Friday of Ramadan - which coincides with the end of the Jewish Passover celebrations - after exchanging stone-throwing and firing rubber bullets.

During the past week, more than two hundred people, mostly Palestinians, were injured in clashes at the Al-Haram Al-Qudsi and its surroundings, which also led to rocket attacks launched by armed Palestinian groups from the Gaza Strip on the Israeli state and Israeli airstrikes in response.

The Jordanian Foreign Ministry announced on Monday that it had summoned the acting Israeli ambassador in Amman and handed him a protest letter demanding a halt to the "illegal and provocative Israeli violations" at the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.

Israel, which signed a peace treaty with Jordan in 1994, recognizes the kingdom's supervision and guardianship over the Islamic holy sites in Jerusalem, which, like other cities in the West Bank, were under Jordanian sovereignty before Israel occupied them in 1967.
