Clashes in Hebron after Hamas demonstration; clashes in Jerusalem after Friday prayers

(1 Aug 2014) Palestinian protestors clashed with Israeli security forces in the West Bank city of Hebron after Friday prayers, angered by Israel's actions against their compatriots in Gaza. The protest came as Israel and Hamas accused each other of breaking a cease-fire, which had been announced by the U.S. and the U.N. and took effect at 8:00 a.m. (0500 GMT) Friday. Fighting broke out less than two hours later. The breakdown of the cease-fire and the apparent capture of the Israeli soldier set the stage for a major escalation of the 25-day-old conflict, which has already devastated large swaths of the impoverished coastal strip. The Hebron clashes followed a march through the streets of the city by thousands of Palestinian demonstrators from all walks of life and from across the political spectrum. In Jerusalem riot police fired tear-gas at protesters and detained a number of people.
