Israel installs metal detectors at Al Aqsa Mosque
Al Aqsa Mosque
Ramallah - Emirates Voice
Jerusalem Waqf (Islamic endowments) Department, Sheikh Azzam Al-Khatib, said Sunday that Israeli occupation forces had seized the keys of the Al Haram Al Sharif (holy sanctuary) compound, continuing the closure of the complex and barring access to the mosque’s guards.
He told Petra’s reporter in Ramallah that despite the restrictions, Jerusalemites were able to perform the Al Fajr (dawn) prayers at the Lions’ Gate outside the mosque’s grounds.
“Israeli authorities had installed metal detectors at the entrances to the mosque, only allowing municipal workers to clean the compound for the first time, which sets a dangerous precedent”, he said.
Israel shut down the Haram Al Sharif, Islam’s third holiest shrine, after a shooting incident on Friday in which three armed men were killed and two Israeli soldiers were killed.

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.
