Of main Muslim prayers
Hundreds more Israeli police deployed ahead
Israel deployed hundreds of additional police officers on Friday
Jerusalem - Emirates Voice
Israel deployed hundreds of additional police officers on Friday following Palestinian calls for protests after the main weekly Muslim prayers against US President Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
“Several hundred additional police and border police have been deployed inside and in the vicinity of the Old City,” police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said.
The situation was calm early Friday in Jerusalem’s Old City, the location of the Al-Aqsa mosque compound, the third-holiest site in Islam and where thousands typically attend the main weekly prayers.
Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, which runs the Gaza Strip, was calling for a “day of rage” on Friday and protests were expected over Trump’s move on Wednesday recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
The disputed city lies at the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with both sides seeing it as their capital.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
