Thousands Gather for Priestly Blessing Ceremony at Western Wall
Thousands of worshippers convened at Jerusalem's Western Wall on September 28 for the traditional Priestly Blessing ceremony, a significant religious observance during the Sukkot holiday period. Members of the priestly lineage, known as Kohanim, gathered under prayer shawls to recite blessings, commemorating the ancient Temple services.
The ceremony, held near the remnant of the Second Temple's western wall, is a prominent event during the Jewish festival season. Security for the event was managed by a large contingent of police officers, border guards, and police volunteers, who were stationed throughout the Old City of Jerusalem to ensure public safety.
