Israeli labourers use a bulldozer to raze a building in the Western Wall plaza of Jerusalem's Old City with the Dome of the Rock mosque and Al Aqsa mosque compound in the background, on February 13, 2013. According to Al-Aqsa Foundation which campaigns for the defence of Islamic holy sites, the Israeli bulldozers are demolishing the frontages and arches of an historic Islamic building few dozen meters away from the Al-Aqsa mosque compound. The Al-Aqsa foundation said in a statement the demolition paves the way for an Israeli project to build a complex including a synagogue, a reception hall and a police station.
