Catholic Leaders Barred From Jerusalem Holy Site on Palm Sunday

TL;DR

The Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem said in a statement that Pizzaballa and Reverend Fr. Francesco Ielpo were prevented from entering the church "as they made their way to celebrate" the Mass. "As a result, and for the first time in centuries, the Heads of the Church were prevented from celebrating the Palm Sunday Mass at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre," the statement said.
