8 Jewish worshipers removed from Temple Mount

The Israel Police says eight Jewish worshipers been removed from the Temple Mount after “violating the terms of the visit,” in an apparent reference to praying at the holy site, which is forbidden for Jewish visitors.

Police say 1,115 people have visited the Temple Mount today, 275 of them Jews.

Tens of thousands were at the morning Priestly Blessing at the Western Wall, police say.
