US president Donald Trump is reported to be considering moving the US embassy in Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
For some it has a red line, for others it could ignite violence across the region. So why is the US government considering moving its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem?
Arab leaders have been very vocal about their opposition to such a move; some have even accused US President Donald Trump of "playing with fire"; others have said it will fuel "extremism".
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has previously warned the White House against moving the embassy.
In 1995, during the presidency of Bill Clinton, the US Congress passed legislation on moving the embassy.
It was supposed to happen by May 31, 1999.
