Tension in Israel

Excavations near the third holiest side in of the Islam in Jerusalem have caused a great deal of tension in Israel. Those tensions also became visible in Muslim countries which protested against the excavation, Turkey now wants to send a inspection team which then is to find if or if not the excavation means harm to the holy side. Israels government has maintained that the excavations do not pose any danger for the holy side and that there is no reason for tension. Further Israel's government has stated that it is happy to host the inspection team since they had nothing to hide.
The Israeli Antiquity Authority has also installed web-cams which supply a 24-Hour feed to show that there is no harm done to the Muslim structure.
