Trump becomes first serving US president to visit the Western Wall
Under heavy guard, Trump becomes the first serving US president to visit the Western Wall, the holiest site where Jews can pray, located in the Old City of Jerusalem.
Trump appears to pray at the wall, places a note inside the crevices before backing away from the holy site.
Daughter Ivanka and First Lady Melania pray separately in the women’s section.
