(Worthy News) – Israel Police Tuesday banned Jewish visitors from visiting the Temple Mount until further notice as tensions rise in the Old City of the Israeli capital.

The purported move is designed to ward off further tensions after clashes and riots in East Jerusalem amid the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Jews, however, will be allowed to enter the area on Jerusalem Day next week. [ Source: Ynet News (Read More…) ]
