Religion: Jerusalem' streets to be segregated during Ramadan

Al Jazeerah.info (not Al Jazeerah of Qatar) reports that during the holy Islamic month of Ramadan, which coincides with various Jewish feasts, a number of streets in Jerusalem are going to be assigned as 'Muslims only' and others as 'Jews only'. The report cites the Israeli newspaper, 'Yedioth Ahronoth.'

The segregation will be mainly at the time of Friday prayers during Ramadan.
