Yesterday, the forces of occupation already restricted access to the Old City of Jerusalem. This measure was taken within the framework of police measures for security ahead of the annual celebration of Yom Kippur. Palestinians have been denied access to the Old City for 40 years, which has caused discontent among local residents. "This is unfair," stated one of the Palestinians trying to enter the Old City. "We have the right to visit our holy sites at any time, regardless of political circumstances."
