Cabinet likely to vote to scrap Temple Mount metal detectors
The cabinet will likely vote to take down the controversial Temple Mount metal detectors after it meets later this evening.
Police are set to propose an alternative means of securing the holy site, Army Radio reports.
Israel place the metal detectors at the entrance to the site that holds the Al-Aqsa Mosque and Dome of the Rock after three Arab gunmen emerged from the site and shot dead two Israeli police officers on July 14.
