More than 200,000 Palestinians attended weekly Moslem prayers at Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa mosque on Friday (9/1) as Israeli police went on high alert after warnings of a possible suicide bombing. But a police spokesman said the prayers went "very quietly" and without incident.
Israel lifted its ban on entry into East Jerusalem from the West Bank for the prayers, the second Friday of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
