Israel celebrated its 54th Independence Day on Wednesday under heavy security for possible terror attacks. Though many public events were canceled out of fear of terrorism, a number of traditional observances were held, including a reception at the president’s official residence in Jerusalem and air force flights over various parts of the country.
