FROM RUPTLY - Israeli police shot three Palestinians dead during a shootout on the Temple Mount in occupied East Jerusalem on Friday, after the men reportedly injured three Israelis in a gun attack at the holy site.
Footage shows a suspect in attack on the floor in the Al Aqsa Mosque compound being shot dead by Israeli forces while lying on the floor.
Authorities report that the Palestinians opened fire at the Lions' Gate to Jerusalem's Old City, with at least two Israeli law enforcement officials among the three injured. The group then reportedly fled to Al Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount, where they were shot dead.
The Al Aqsa Mosque has since been cordoned off and Friday prayers cancelled.
The attack at the Temple Mount follows the deaths of two Palestinians at the hands of Israel forces at Jenin refugee camp in the north of the occupied West Bank, Wednesday.
