Like every night in Jerusalem, a riot truck spews foul-smelling liquid into the streets to scare away the remaining protesters.
Saturday night Jerusalem smelled rancid and uncertain.
It must be said that clashes have accumulated since the start of Ramadan, leaving more than 200 people injured after the security forces violently dispersed the Palestinians present on the Mosques esplanade.
The faithful are still stunned by the clashes.
"I was really scared, Janat confides. Everyone was running, when you see all these injured people in front of you, you are scared…"
Threats of eviction
The Israeli police are less numerous than usual at the entrances to the site, but their presence annoys.
The director of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Omar Kiswani, is increasing the calls for calm.
"Bringing the mosque alive is done by prayer, not by trying to ruin everything and giving an opportunity to those who would like to invade our prayers."
Between prayers and songs, we also talk about the fate of families in the Sheikh Jarah neighborhood, threatened with expulsion in favor of Jewish settlers.
Justice must rule on Monday.
"If the court decides that the houses belong to the settlers, people will never forget that it is their houses, Oday fears. I hope it does not go that far, that it does not degenerate, that we do not 'we won't have martyrs or war because of it. "
