This is a joint ConGen Jerusalem/Embassy Tel Aviv cable. 
 
1.  (SBU) Summary: Approximately 300 Fatah activists the 
evening of May 23 attempted to enter the Muqata'a in Ramallah 
in order to visit former Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman 
Arafat's gravesite.  Clashes erupted as PA security forces 
blocked their entrance into the compound.  The Fatah 
activists responded by throwing stones at PA security, which 
in turn responded with automatic gunfire that resulted in 
serious wounds to one demonstrator.  An IED exploded next to 
an IDF on patrol west of Hebron May 23, and the IDF arrested 
a Palestinian teenager carrying an explosive belt near the 
Bethlehem District Coordination office the same day.  Gaza 
was largely quiet on the security front, although tens of 
thousands of Hamas supporters demonstrated throughout the 
strip to protest the PA court decision to re-run elections in 
Rafah, Bayt Lahiya, and al-Bureij.  End Summary.
