Egypt Forbids Jews to Dedicate Restored Synagogue
Egypt has retaliated for Israeli security limits at the Temple Mount by banning the dedication of the restored 19th century Rav Moshe synagogue. Eighteen months of work and $2 million were poured into the project. However, Egypt has allowed Jews to open the doors and use the house of worship, although without a public ceremony.
