“To dig in such a sensitive area without any oversight, inspection or access to the public is insane,” said director of Regavim’s International Division Naomi Kahn. “They had no right to do so.”
(March 10, 2021 / JNS) The Regavim Movement, a research-based think tank and lobbying group dedicated to preserving Israel’s resources and sovereignty, has filed a petition against the Jerusalem Municipality, demanding enforcement against what they allege is an illegal subterranean tunnel dug by the Church of the Dormition on Mount Zion in the Old City of Jerusalem.
