Jerusalem Day (Hebrew: יום ירושל ;ים, Yom Yerushalayim) is an Israeli national holiday commemorating the re unification of Jerusalem and the establishment of Israeli control over the Old City in June 1967. The Chief Rabb inate of Israel declared Jerusalem Day a minor religious holiday to tha nk God for victory in the Six-Day War and for answering the 2,000-year-old prayer of "Next Year in Jerusalem".
The day is marked by state ceremo
nies, memorial services for soldiers who died in the battle for Jerusalem,
parades through downtown Jerusalem, reciting the Hallel prayer with blessings in syna
gogues, and saying the Pesukei Dezimra of Sabba
th and High Holidays.[1] There are also lectures o
n Jerusalem-related topics, singing and dancing, and special television pro
gramming.[2]<

Jerusalem, and schools in Jerusalem hold festive assemblies.[3] The day is also marked in Jewish schools around the world.[4][5]

8;ב, "the Ninth of Av,") is an annual fast day in
Judaism,
named for the ninth day (Tisha) of the month of Av in the Hebrew calendar. Th
e fast commemorates the destruction of both the First Temple an
d Second Temple in Jerusalem, which occurred about 655 years apart, but on
the same Hebrew calendar date.
[1] Although primarily meant to commemorate t

rate other Jewish tragedies that occurred on this day, most notably the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492.[2] Accordingly, the day has been cal
led the "saddest day in Jewish history".
Tisha B'Av falls in July o r August in the western calendar. When the ni nth of Av falls on Sabbath (Saturday), the observance is deferred to Sunday the ten th of Av. While the day recalls general tragedies which have befallen the J ewish people over the ages, the day focuses on commemoration of five events : the destruction of the two ancient Temples in Jerusalem, the sin of ten o f the twelve scouts sent by Moses who spoke disparagingly about the Promised Land, the razing of Jerusalem following the siege o f Jerusalem in 70 CE, and the failure of the Bar Kokhba revolt against the Roma n Empire.
