Palestinians Riot in Eastern Jerusalem as IDF Searches for Shooter
(Times of Israel) Palestinians clashed with Israeli police across eastern Jerusalem on Wednesday night as forces continued to hunt for the Palestinian responsible for the murder of Military Policewoman Sgt. Noa Lazar, 18, and seriously wounding a male security guard at a security checkpoint near the neighborhood of Shuafat on Saturday. Israeli forces have imposed a closure on Shuafat since the gunman is thought to have fled into the refugee camp. Earlier on Wednesday, Palestinian gunmen opened fire at a Border Police position at the Qalandia crossing near Jerusalem. In addition, video from the Ras al-Amud neighborhood showed a hail of fireworks directed at apartments owned by Jewish families.
