Israel Lifts Restrictions at Jerusalem Holy Sites Following Ceasefire
Israel has lifted restrictions on access to holy sites in Jerusalem following a ceasefire agreement with Iran and the United States. The restrictions, which were imposed during the conflict with Iran, had limited access to Christian, Jewish, and Muslim sites, affecting religious celebrations such as Lent, Passover, and Ramadan. The Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Western Wall have reopened, allowing worshippers to pray freely. The lifting of restrictions coincides with Orthodox Easter celebrations, enabling thousands of Christians to participate in the Holy Fire ceremony at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
