Palestinian protesters clashed with Israeli soldiers in Ramallah and other places in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Palestinian shops in east Jerusalem, including the Old City, as well as in the West Bank were largely shut and schools were closed on Thursday. Clashes also erupted in East Jerusalem and at the border fence between Israel and Gaza. Israel deployed hundreds of extra troops in the West Bank amid rising tensions. The decision was met with global dismay, drawing criticism from Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, Egypt, Turkey, Malaysia, Indonesia and more.
