Thousands of Israeli nationalists have been marching into the Muslim quarter of Jerusalem's Old City for Israel's Jerusalem Day.

The historic flag parade marks Israel’s capture of the east of the city in the 1967 war.

However, violence was directed at media covering the event, with a group of marchers throwing stones, sticks and bottles at Palestinian and foreign journalists.

Israeli police have vowed to stop law-breaking, but blamed regional "terrorist elements" for "wild incitement" about the march on social media.
