JERUSALEM: Israeli occupation forces closed several streets in occupied Jerusalem today to secure an annual marathon organized by Israeli colonists.
The controversial marathon coincides with the occupation forces’ restrictions on the entry of Muslim worshippers to the Old City and the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound ahead of the weekly Friday prayers.
The Israeli measures have resulted in traffic jams on the city streets and imposed hardships on the Palestinian citizens of the occupied capital.
