The New York Times reported that more than 1,000 people gathered for the Good Friday procession along the Via Dolorosa, the route that Christians believe Jesus carried his cross toward the location of his crucifixion.  The annual event brought together crowds of believers, with police blocking off side streets as members of a Catholic youth group formed a ring around people carrying a large replica crucifix, the Times noted.  ADVERTISEMENT Videos posted on social media showed the crowds wearing face masks as they packed into narrow streets, reciting chants and songs as they walked to deliver the cross to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, where Christians believe Jesus was crucified, buried and ultimately resurrected from death.
