Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Continues with Hundreds Injured on the Temple Mount | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Tensions between Israel and Palestine are on the rise. The Jewish holiday of Passover began on Friday, just two weeks after Ramadan, the holiest time for Muslims. But the violence between the 2 groups did not stop. Over 150 people were injured at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, located on the Temple Mount. More incidents have occurred this week, including molotov cocktails being thrown into the mosque this morning. Managing Director of the Coalition of Jewish Values, Rabbi Yaakov Menken, joins to talk more about the recent incidents and why he thinks we are seeing this wave of violence now. Over the weekend, 3 Orthodox Jewish men were walking through Jerusalem's old city and were attacked by Palestinians. The rabbi shares what more he knows about that. Last year, there was an 11 day conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. Rabbi Yaakov discusses how the aftermath of that conflict played into what we are seeing now. He fills us in on what else he is following. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
