An ultra orthodox Jewish man walks on the empty roads in Jerusalem, on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, and the holiest of Jewish holidays. Israel came to a standstill for 25-hours during the high holiday of Yom Kippur when observant Jews fast and Israelis are prohibited from driving. October 04, 2014. Photo by Miriam Alster/Flash 90
