An Israeli Border police officer argues with Palestinian Muslim worshippers as they wait to cross at the Israeli army checkpoint at Kalandiya, between Ramallah and Jerusalem. Around 90,000 Muslims congregated in Jerusalem for the first Friday prayers of the holy month of Ramadan, police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said. He said "thousands" of police were deployed around the city to "prevent any disturbances."
