A large stone weighing approximately 100 kg was detached last night from the Western Wall and crushed to the ground without causing casualties. The episode took place a few hours after the end of penitential fasting on the ninth day of the Hebrew month of Av which recalls the destruction of the first and second temple of Jerusalem. [Lundi1945] For many hours, the esplanade in front of the Wall had been packed with thousands of worshipers. The fall of the Wailing Wall stones is considered very rare and the last episode goes back tens of years
