The outgoing Israeli government has given the go-ahead for a march by religious nationalists which was cancelled by organisers over fears it could trigger a new round of conflict.
The flag march through the Muslim Quarter of Jerusalem was originally due to take place on Thursday, but police rejected the original route.
The march will now happen next Tuesday.
Hamas, the Islamist movement that controls Gaza, had threatened further escalation if the march took place.
At least 242 people were killed in Gaza and 13 people were killed in Israel during 11 days of fierce fighting last month.

The cabinet of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued the decision after a meeting on Tuesday.
It would then fall to the incoming government, led by ultra-nationalist Naftali Bennett and centrist Yair Lapid, to make the final decision on whether the flag march should take place two days later.
