Lighting at the Kotel (Western Wall of the Temple in Jerusalem) will be dimmed Saturday night, for Tisha B'Av – the fast day marking the Jewish nation's mourning over the destruction of the First and Second Temples and other tragic events in its history.

Tens of thousands of Jews are expected to come to the Kotel courtyard on Saturday night and Sunday, to read prayers called Kinot or lamentations, and mourn the destruction of the Temple.

Ambulances will park near the Kotel to take care of anyone who needs medical attention during the fast.
