OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- Israeli police force raised level of alert to the highest point in preparation for Jewish holidays that coincide this year with the anniversary of the second intifada that broke out in September 2000.
Hebrew media on Tuesday reported that the policemen would be deployed in city centers and densely populated areas especially in Jerusalem in anticipation of "provocative acts" or conformations between Palestinians and Zionist settlers.
Meanwhile, the commander of the Home Front in the Israeli army issued an order banning the entry of Sheikh Ali Abu Sheikha, the advisor for the Islamic movement in 1948 occupied Palestine for Jerusalem and Aqsa affairs, into Jerusalem for six months.
Sources in the movement said that the order was delivered to the Sheikh after midnight yesterday despite the fact that it was issued on 12/5/2010.
The Sheikh said in a press release that he does not recognize the Israeli occupation authority's decisions. "We are entitled to pray in the Aqsa and to enter Jerusalem whenever we so wished and without permission from the occupation".
Israeli occupation forces (IOF) in the meantime continued detention campaigns against Palestinians in the West Bank and rounded up ten of them on Tuesday.
IOF troops also prevented farmers in Akraba, southeast of Nablus, from tending to their land on Monday and gave them ten minutes to leave at the pretext that their land was a closed military zone.
