A 16-year-old ultra-Orthodox teenager is moderately injured in clashes with police in Jerusalem.

He is admitted to the Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital with a head wound and internal bleeding, the hospital says.

A second teenage protester, 17, at a demonstration against the arrest of the relative of a prominent rabbi for avoiding the military draft, is treated for light injuries.

Israeli security forces remove ultra-Orthodox Jewish demonstrators from the road in an ultra-Orthodox neighborhood of Jerusalem on September 17, 2017, as they protest against a court ruling that could require them to serve in the army like their secular counterparts. The demonstration was organized by a particularly hardline group known as Eda Haredit. (AFP PHOTO / Ahmad GHARABLI)
