]]> Access to the special Easter services in Jerusalem will be restricted this year due to the high alert level in Israel. However, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs will ensure a special corridor for the planes that will transport the Holy Light to the Orthodox countries. The statement was made by Ioan Meiu, the envoy of the Romanian Patriarchate to the Holy Places, reports IPN referring to Antena 3.

Ioan Meiu stated that the alert level in Israel is at its maximum, and the Holy Week services will be held with restrictions, similar to the pandemic period. Access to the Holy Sepulchre will only be allowed for official delegations, accompanied by hierarchs and priests, while believers will not be able to participate in either the services or the ceremony of lighting the Holy Light.

The envoy of the Romanian Patriarchy to the Holy Places stated that the opening of the special corridor for aircraft was made possible due to diplomatic efforts, including those of the embassies. Thus, on Holy Saturday, special aircraft will take off from Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv to several Orthodox countries, including Romania.
