Jerusalem Examination

JERUSALEM (JTA)—More than
120,000 Jews flocked into the square
before the Western Wall last Satur-
day night and Sunday morning to
mark Tisha b'Av by saying prayers
and reciting Lamentations. Israel
took on a reverent atmosphere as
the nation commemorated the day
when the Temple was destroyed.
Nightclubs and restaurants through-
out Israel closed at sunset Satur-
day.
The multitude sat on the ground
before the Western Wall, with each
group of people reciting their pray-
ers in their traditional chant. Huge
naval floodlights lit the area on
orders from Defense Minister
Moshe Dayan. Jews from Israel
and other countries first started
massing in the square early Satur-
day afternoon, and the crowds con-
tinued to come until well after
midnight Sunday.
Jerusalem, which was tense on
Friday following the explosion of
a bomb in the Cafe Orient in
East Jerusalem and clashes be-
tween Jews and Arabs, was quiet
throughout Saturday and Sunday.
Police increased their patrols in
Jerusalem following the bombing.
They detained 15 East Jerusalem
Arabs who were in the cafe for
interrogation and for protection
against attacks by 'infuriated Jew-
ish youths. A number of scattered
incidents also occurred in East
