Following Riots

Jerusalem (JTA) — Tough
precautionary measures
were credited with keeping
the peace in Jerusalem on
the first anniversary of the
Temple Mount riots.
Palestinians staged a gen-
eral strike. But no serious
incidents were reported at
the Islamic shrines, where at
least 1,000 police and
soldiers were deployed.
But sporadic disturbances
occurred elsewhere in the
city and in the West Bank.
Security sources said the
police would be kept in a
state of high alert through
this weekend.
The anniversary com-
memorated the fatal
shooting of 17 Arabs by
Israeli soldiers and border
police, who stormed the
Temple Mount on Oct. 8,
1990, after Arabs crowds
threw stones at Jews wor-
shipping at the Western
Wall below.
More than 200 Arabs were
wounded. A subsequent in-
quiry faulted police conduct
but no disciplinary measures
were called for or taken.
Anticipating trouble at
memorial services last week,
the security authorities
barred West Bank residents
from entering Jerusalem for
the day. That, and other
precautions, accounted for
the low turnout for the ser-
vices, according to Police
Minister Ronni Milo.
Only 200 Arabs prayed at
the mosques. They were
outnumbered at least 5-to-1
by armed troops and police,
who kept them under
scrutiny until they dispersed
without incident.
Elsewhere in the Old City,
a gasoline bomb was thrown
at border police guarding the
residence that Housing Min-
ister Ariel Sharon estab-
lished in the Moslem
Quarter several years ago.
No one was hurt.
Masked youths threw
stones at a border police pat-
rol in the Sawahre neigh-
borhood of east Jerusalem
and blocked roads with bur-
ning tires.
The police dispersed them
with rubber bullets. No in-
juries or damage was re-
ported.
Masked men attacked a
Jewish driver near Efrat, a
settlement south of
Bethlehem, in the West
Bank. His car was slightly
damaged but the settler
escaped unharmed.
Several villages near
Jerusalem marked the an-
niversary by protest mar-
ches.
