IDF on high alert for Yom Yerushalayim celebrations BY DAVID SAFFER
Israeli Police are on high alert for the annual Yom Yerushalayim (Jerusalem Day) ‘Flag March’ through the capital to celebrate the 56th anniversary of the reunification of Jerusalem tomorrow. Knesset ministers are expected to join tens of thousands on the march including Itamar Ben Gvir, Bezalel Smotrich, Galit Distal Atbaryan, Idit Silman, Ofir Sofer and Miri Regev. A heavy police presence of 2,000 officers will be in place. The route, which includes Damascus Gate and ends at the Western Wall, commemorates the establishment of Israeli control over the Old City after the Six Day war in 1967. The rally takes place days after the ceasefire brokered by Egypt at the Gaza border following five days of rocket fire by Palestinian Islamic Jihad militants at the Gaza border. Authorities remain cautiously
