As a result of the ban as well as current coronavirus restrictions on movement, she is forced to perform the prayers near her home and away from the walled compound where she is seen in this picture praying at a location on Mount of Olives overlooking Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Old City when Jewish fanatics started to harass her as she prayed.
