Political Groups in Egypt to Block Jewish Access to Famous Rabbi's Tomb
(Egypt Independent) A number of political groups in Egypt announced Monday that they plan to protest at the tomb of Yaakov Abuhatzeira, a Moroccan rabbi who died in 1880 while on a pilgrimage to the Land of Israel and is buried in the Egyptian village of Damtu outside Damanhour. The groups said they will form human shields to prevent any "Zionist" visitors from visiting the tomb on Jan. 9-10, the anniversary of his death.
