The Dome of the Rock is seen in the background as Israeli policemen stand guard near Palestinian men (not pictured) participating in Friday prayers in Arab east Jerusalem neighbourhood of Ras al-Amud October 9, 2015. Four Israelis have been killed in stabbings in Jerusalem and a drive-by shooting in the occupied West Bank since last week, and there have been several such attacks by Palestinians within Israel that caused injuries but no fatalities. Three Palestinians have been shot dead and scores injured in clashes with Israeli security services, triggering fears of a new Palestinian uprising or intifada. Israeli police spokesman said on Friday that they will only permit Palestinian men over the age of 45 to enter the Old City. REUTERS/Ammar Awad
