Palestinians Riot outside Jerusalem's Old City on Tuesday
(Times of Israel) Stuart Winer - Arab residents of eastern Jerusalem hurled stones at police and passing city buses on Tuesday in rioting at the Old City's Damascus Gate. Bus driver Yehezkel Shmueli told Channel 12 he shouted at passengers to lie on the floor as the vehicle came under a hail of stones. "People saw death coming. It was a war zone." He told Channel 13 he was hit with glass in his face as a stone shattered a window. A spokesperson for the Egged bus service said dozens of buses have been damaged over the past few weeks due to Palestinian stone-throwing in the area.
