Jerusalem site security measures removed

Source: BBC, July 27, 2017

All security measures recently introduced outside a key Jerusalem holy site, sparking Palestinian uproar, have been removed, Israeli police say.
Railings and scaffolding were removed on Thursday morning, two days after metal detectors were taken away.

Palestinian leaders will now decide whether to lift a boycott of the site by worshippers.
The crisis erupted after the killing nearby of two Israeli policemen by Israeli Arabs nearly two weeks ago.
