Another reason was when on 10th may protesters were protesting against the govt. some of the protesters start throwing stones and enter the al-Aqsa mosque. Chasing the protesters, the police enter the mosque and fired bullets and grenades in the mosque. As number of protesters were already praying in the mosque many people got injured. This escalated the violence in country and the cities like lod ends up in emergency.
Historical
reason behind the conflict: before starting, I just want to tell you
that Jerusalem is a historical city and has remain in conflict over long period
of time. Actually, the city of Jerusalem has three most important religious
sites of Jews, Muslims and Christians.
In world 2 Jews were targeted by German allied forces and were massacred.
You have heard about the holocaust of Jews. At that time Jews were killed in
mass bases. And Jews were demanding a state of Israel mainly for Jews people.
As was the world power at that time it assured Jews people that they will
provide land for Israel in Palestine. And slowly Jews people start buying land
in Palestine near Jerusalem. Initially there was no issue regarding this but
when the Jews population increased rapidly in Palestine people start opposing
this mass migration of Jews people in Palestine. In 1948 three after world war
2, on 5th may Israel announced the formation of state of
Israel.
The formation of Israel in middle east was heavily opposed by middle
east countries and on very next day Egypt, Transjordan, Iraq, Syria, and other
allies attacked Israel. The war continues almost for nine months. No result comes
in the end. After this UN resolution number 194 was signed but none of the
countries expected it. But cease fire was established and status quo was
maintained.
Initially Israel has limited land but after the war Israel forces conquered
large peace of land and Palestine was left with Gaza strip and west bank. After
this situation was very tensed and broke into war in 1967. This war is called six-day
war and seen as the deciding war between Israel and Palestine. In conclusion in this war Egypt. Transjordan,
Iraq, Syria and allied country forces lost brutally and Israel even conquer
land of Egypt till Suez Canal. After the war Israel conquer more land of
Palestine and Gaza strip become smaller. Still after losing the war country
deny Israel as state. A big point came in 1973 when Egypt the 1st Arab
world nation excepted Israel as a country. After this war no country came into
war with Israel for the issue of Palestine.
In 1993 a
peace accord signed between Israel and PLO (Palestine liberation army) also
known as Oslo accord. These negotiations happen till 2000 and up in nothing as
Israel denied the two-state concept of PLO. After this number of militant rises
in Palestine like HAMAS, Palestine Islamic jihad, popular resistance front and
many more. After this number of suicide bombing from these militants groups
were done and number of time small scale war broke. The most suffered parties
in this conflict was the Palestinian civilian.
In 2014 when some of the Israeli Jews were charged of killing
Palestinian teen, several militant groups including HAMAS fired 100’s of
rockets towards Israel. But thanks to iron dome an anti-rocket system which
reduces the damage in Israel in large scale. In end of war 2143 Palestine
civilians were killed, almost 11000 wounded and 1,00,000 became homeless.
Number of time situation eslcated from than to now. And still the conflict
continues.
