Israeli security forces take position during clashes with Palestinian protesters following Friday prayer outside Jerusalem's Old City on July 21, 2017, after Israeli police barred men under 50 from entering the Old City for Friday Muslim prayers as tensions rose and protests erupted over new security measures at the highly sensitive Al-Aqsa mosque compound. The ban came after Israeli ministers decided not to order the removal of metal detectors erected at entrances to the Al-Aqsa mosque compound, known to Jews as the Temple Mount, following an attack nearby a week ago that killed two policemen.
