Israeli police say the fire on the Temple Mount appears to have been started by fireworks that were launched at it in this footage from May 10.

Police say officers are on the scene and are working to extinguish the blaze.

The Al-Aqsa mosque compound is the third holiest site in Islam. The site is also the holiest site for Jews, who refer to it as the Temple Mount and revere it as the spot where the biblical Temples stood.

Hamas has responded with 7 fired rockets, according to reports.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vows a forceful response to the Gaza rocket fire.

“Israel will respond with great force. We will not tolerate attacks on our territory, our capital, our citizens, or our soldiers,” says Netanyahu.

“Those who attack us will pay a heavy price,” says Netanyahu, adding that Israel does not seek an escalation of hostilities.

He says the current round of fighting may last “some time.”
