Day of Hope in Hebron
(Ynet News) Yair Altman - In Hebron in the West Bank on Saturday, about 10,000 people visited the Jewish community ahead of the Torah portion marking Abraham's acquisition of the Cave of the Patriarchs in the city. For the first time in many years, Jews were able to enter Hebron's Old City without a personal security escort. The highlight of the day occurred when Jewish youngsters touring the city spontaneously joined Palestinian youths playing soccer. Dozens of teenagers, both Jewish and Arab, gathered at the site to cheer on the players, as smiling police officers and IDF soldiers looked on.
