Israeli youth dance under a huge national flag during a parade marking the nation’s 45th Jerusalem Day in Jerusalem on Sunday. Thousands participated in the parade, which began near Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence, made its way toward the walled Old City and ended at the Western Wall, one of Judaism’s holiest sites. Jerusalem Day marks the anniversary of Israel’s capture of the Eastern part of the city during the 1967 Middle East War. Israel annexed East Jerusalem as part of its capital in a move not recognized internationally.
