Lupoliansky Calls on Government to Complete Security Barrier Immediately

by Betzalel Kahn

Jerusalem Mayor Rabbi Uri Lupoliansky called on acting PM Ehud Olmert to complete construction of the security barrier around Jerusalem by the end of this year.

During the course of a meeting between the two it was learned that there are several breaches in the section of the fence surrounding the capital city. Today these openings constitute a central passage route for terrorists from Palestinian Authority territory. Only through chasdei Shomayim were terrorists who recently infiltrated Israel via Jerusalem prevented from carrying out bombing attacks in the center of the country.

At the meeting, which was also attended by security, military and police officials, a decision was made to significantly boost electronic security at the entry points that remain open. At the end of the meeting the Mayor thanked Olmert for issuing instructions to execute inspections and surveys on a daily basis.
