"Security Measures in Place as First Friday Ramadan Prayers Pass Quietly at Al-Aqsa Mosque"

The peaceful prayers were seen as a victory for those who believe that Jerusalem is more than just a conflict zone, with the event passing by quietly without providing any excuses for controversy-prone Israeli lawmaker Itamar Ben-Gvir.
