Preparations for relocating US embassy finished

Wednesday 25-April-2018

Preparations necessary to move the US embassy on May 14 from Tel Aviv to Occupied Jerusalem have completed.

Among the preparations are road signs as well as an access road for an embassy building being built behind the current US consulate.

According to the Hebrew media the new embassy will be an interim embassy facility in the Arnona neighborhood of Jerusalem partially converting what is currently used as a US consulate into a temporary embassy. It will house US Ambassador David Friedman’s office and a small portion of the staff currently located at the embassy in Tel Aviv.

The Arnona compound will be expanded with the addition of a new annex likely by the end of 2019.

The Hebrew media also claimed that US president Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner would represent the administration at the Embassy’s opening ceremony.
