JERUSALEM, Israel (WABC) -- Eyewitness News sent reporter N.J. Burkett to Israel to cover the unrest in the country following President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the country's capital.

Israel's defense minister called Sunday for a boycott of Arab businesses in an area where residents took part in violent protests against Trump's decision.

Rocks rained down on Israeli soldiers for a third straight day Saturday as hundreds of demonstrators took to the streets in every major Palestinian city, determined not to let up.
