None

JERUSALEM - Jerusalem's Church of the Holy Sepulchre, revered as the site of Jesus's crucifixion and burial, will reopen its doors after Israel backtracked on Tuesday from a tax plan and proposed property legislation that prompted a three-day protest.

 

A statement issued by Christian leaders in Jerusalem said the church would reopen on Wednesday morning.
