My Way News - Jerusalem reopens popular Old City gate
My Way News reports: "Israel reopened a 16th-century gate to Jerusalem's Old City on Wednesday, completing a two-month renovation and cleaning project that drew criticism from Palestinian officials [...] The Old City is in east Jerusalem, the section of the city claimed by the Palestinians as their future capital. It is also home to the most sensitive holy site in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict - a hilltop compound revered by Jews as the Temple Mount and by Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary."
