Obama delays moving US Embassy to Jerusalem

President Barack Obama is delaying moving the US Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv.

 

A 1995 US law recognizes Jerusalem as Israel's capital and ordered that the embassy be relocated there. But the law also permits the president to delay the move for six-month periods, based on national security grounds. (AP)
