Israel Expands Police Presence in East Jerusalem to Stem Palestinian Attacks
(USA Today) Shira Rubin - Israeli police are expanding their presence into east Jerusalem's Arab neighborhoods. Police spokesperson Luba Samri said police are actively recruiting Arab police officers and seeking to foster cooperation with local Arab community leaders to "enhance civilians' feeling of safety." Meanwhile, attacks on Israelis by Arabs have declined dramatically in the past two months, from 103 in June to fewer than 10 in July and August combined.
