Israel on Friday announced a series of gestures to relax restrictions on the movement of Palestinian Arabs during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
The measures, similar to those of previous years, were announced by the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), the unit which manages civilian affairs in Judea and Samaria under the auspices of newly-appointed Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman.
Up to 500 people from the Gaza Strip will be allowed to attend Friday prayers at the Al-Aqsa Mosque over the holy month, set to begin on Sunday or Monday, according to AFP.
In addition, 200 Gaza residents will be allowed to visit relatives in the Palestinian Authority (PA)-assigned areas of Judea and Samaria during Ramadan, and 500 Palestinians from Judea and Samaria will be authorized to visit family in Gaza, COGAT said.
Israel will also allow 300 Palestinians living abroad to visit relatives in Gaza, and 500 Judea and Samaria-based Palestinians would be permitted to travel out of the Ben Gurion airport.
There will be additional allowances for the Muslim holidays which follow the end of Ramadan, according to AFP.
The COGAT statement said the measures were "in line with the Israeli civil policy striving to improve the quality of life" for Palestinians and "maintaining freedom of religion".

And they’re all seriously PO’d ‘cause they haven’t eaten.
I’d say the proper “gesture” would be to send them a carload of roasted pigs with apples in their mouths.
Best gesture is no gesture. Do Muslims send us gestures (besides trying to kill us, I mean).
I was thinking more along the lines of an actual gesture...like a middle finger....with the other hand on a weapon set to full auto.
give them all free bus rides to their own countries
that’s the only concession Jerusalem needs to give its IslamoNazi squatters
I’ve got a gesture for them.
Gotcher gesture right here...
How about offering free bacon for the evening meal?
I just made a few gestures in their direction. Luckily you can’t see them or I’d be banned from FreeRepublic.
