Christmas Pilgrims From Israel To Worship In Old Jerusalem
About 4 000 Christians from Israel, mostly Arabs, are expected to worship at the old Jerusalem shrines this Christmas. They will be allowed to stay in Jordanian territory for four days this year, instead of 36 hours as in recent years. A mine rescue described as touch and go and conducted over the cave-in was hailed as successful as rescuers pulled the injured worker to safety. The patient was in fair condition with a leg injury and a fractured rib.
