Jerusalem, 9 fev 2007.
A la suite de protestations contre les travaux pres de l'esplanade des Mosquées, la vieille ville de Jerusalem a été completement fermée aux hommes en dessous de 45 ans. Des centaines de Palestiniens ont dû prier dans les rues, sous la surveillance des soldats et policiers israeliens, deployés en masse. Des confrontations ont faits de nombreux blessés.

Following the wide protest and outrage against the works next the Al Aqsa Mosque, the Old city of Jerusalem was completly closed to the men under 45 years old. Hundreds of Palestinians had to pray outside, in front of the numerous Israeli soldiers and police. They were everywhere and Jerusalem looked under siege. Numerous Palestinians were injured, as well as Israeli policemen and soldiers.
