The Zionist Federation has criticised the BBC for excluding Jerusalem from its weather map of Israel.

A BBC Weather search for Israel brings up nine locations across Israel, including Eilat in the south and Hadera towards the north of the country.

But Jerusalem is omitted from the list and temperatures in the city can only be found through a separate search.

Equally, when looking at the weather in Tel Aviv on a map, the site offers the option of "country" as well, but no country is given at all when Jerusalem is shown.
