The Second Intifada, also known as the Al-Aqsa Intifada (Template:Lang-ar Template:Transl; Template:Lang-he Intifādat El-Aqtzah), was a period of intensified Israeli–Palestinian violence, which Palestinians describe as an uprising against Israel. The violence started in September 2000, after Ariel Sharon made a visit to the Temple Mount, seen by Palestinians as highly provocative. Palestinian demonstrators threw stones at police and were dispersed by the Israeli army, using tear gas and rubber bullets.
