Jerusalem District Commander Superintendent Avshalom Peled signed an administrative order Wednesday banning a planned pilgrimage to the tomb of Rabbi Yitzhak Gabra in Moshav Aghur, scheduled for the coming days. The ban follows the organizers' failure to meet conditions set by experts, including conditions set by the organizers' own appointees, Inbar Tvizer (N12) reports.
As The Zioneer reported minutes earlier, Jerusalem District police have banned a pilgrimage planned for the coming days to the tomb of Rabbi Yitzhak Gabra in Moshav Aghur. The administrative order, signed Wednesday by District Commander Superintendent Avshalom Peled, is due to organizers failing to meet expert-set conditions — some of which were laid down by the organizers' own appointed experts, according to Inbar Tvizer (N12). No details have yet been disclosed on the specific unmet conditions or whether the organizers will appeal. The ban reflects recurring friction between religious pilgrimage organizers and police safety requirements in the district.
