Renewed clashes at the revered Al-Aqsa mosque compound in Jerusalem ahead of a planned Jewish nationalist march have left hundreds injured. Palestinians hurled projectiles at Israeli officers in riot gear who fired rubber bullets, stun grenades and tear gas as a planned march marking Israel's 1967 takeover of the holy city threatened to further inflame tensions.
