A Jewish man was arrested on Sunday morning, the first day of Chol Hamoed Pesach after he prostrated himself on Har Habayis, which is prohibited for Jews to do.
YWN NOTES: Gedolei Yisrael over the generations and the Chief Rabbinate of Israel prohibit visiting Har Habayis, which they explain carries the punishment of karess.
