Security officials have warned politicians that holding Jerusalem Day events as usual could fan the flames in East Jerusalem and cause the violence that has erupted in the area in recent days to intensify.
In a situational assessment meeting with government officials, senior defense representatives asked to change the date of the traditional Jerusalem Day Flag March, or to at least limit the number of participants and change the route, so as not to pass through tense areas of the city.
If Jews enter the Temple Mount on Monday, violence could spread to Gaza and the West Bank, the security officials said.
