Tearing K'riah when seeing Jerusalem?

Hi,

One tears "k'riah" when seeing the Temple Mount, or any city of Judea, which is now under non-Jewish control, even if it is built up nicely. One would not tear upon seeing sections of Jerusalem which are under Jewish control and built up nicely.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 4:70:11)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
