RESTRICTION SUMMARY: Jerusalem - 20 April 2022. Israeli right wing activists with Israeli flags gather for a march in Jerusalem.


STORYLINE:

Police prevented hundreds of ultra-nationalist Israelis from marching around predominantly Palestinian areas of Jerusalem's Old City. The event planned for Wednesday was similar to one that served as one of the triggers of last year's Israel-Gaza war.

Days of violence in Jerusalem and an exchange of fire in Gaza overnight have raised the possibility that Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers will once again go to war, as they did less than a year ago under similar circumstances. This time around, both Israel and Hamas have powerful incentives to preserve calm — but do not want to be seen as retreating from a Jerusalem holy site at the heart of the century-old Mideast conflict.
