Israel seals Paleo territories for Yom Kippur
2006-09-30
JERUSALEM - A total closure on the Palestinian territories ordered by the Israeli defence establishment ahead of Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, was to come into effect on Friday.
"Happy holidays! Stay at home!"
‘The total closure on the Palestinian territories will come into effect on Friday after the Muslim prayers and will last until Monday evening at the end of Yom Kippur,’ a defence ministry spokeswoman said.
