Mount of Olives Security Beefed Up
(Jerusalem Post) Matthew Wagner - On Sunday the Israeli cabinet will be asked to approve transfer of responsibility for security on the Mount of Olives to the Construction and Housing Ministry. In addition to the security cameras and regular police patrols, the ministry will provide a budget for a private security company that will maintain a constant presence on the mount. At the beginning of December the headstone of the recently deceased Rebbe of Lalov was smashed by vandals using hammers. This was the latest case in which gravesites have been desecrated. Police suspect local Arab residents were responsible.
