HUNDREDS CLASH WITH IDF FORCES IN ‘DAY OF RAGE’: Palestinians adhered to leadership calls to hold a so-called 'Day of Rage' against Israel on Friday, as hundreds of Judea & Samaria residents staged protests and clashed with Israeli security forces. Violence erupted at the flashpoint Kalandia checkpoint, as some 400 Palestinians threw stones and firebombs at IDF troops. In the Shuafat refugee camp, a funeral was held for 38-year-old Ibrahim al-Aqari, the east Jerusalem resident who killed two people and injured a dozen more in a terrorist attack this week. Bright-green Hamas flags were carried through the terrorist's hometown, as residents threw stones and Molotov cocktails at security forces following the ceremony. Torching tires and trash cans, they chanted anti-Israel slogans, prompting Border Police officers to spray tear gas and quell the rising tensions. Both Hamas and Islamic Jihad called on Palestinians to take to the streets of Jerusalem and Judea & Samaria to demonstrate against Israel's policies at the Aksa Mosque. Near Ramallah Palestinians threw stones at security personnel, while demonstrations were held in other areas to the south, near Hebron. (Jerusalem Post)
