According to "Halley's Bible Handbook":
"...Micah's message was to both Israel and Judah, addressed primarily to their two respective capitals, Samaria and JERUSALEM. It's three main ideas were: their SINS; their DESTRUCTION; and their RESTORATION. These ideas, in the book, are mixed up, with abrupt transitions between Present Desolation, and Future Glory." (Halley's Bible Handbook with the King James Version: Classic Edition -- MICAH p366)
"...In addition to their IDOLATRY (1:5-7), the ruling classes were merciless in their treatment of the poor, seizing their fields, even their clothes, and ejecting women with little children from their homes, and, on top of it all, heaping to themselves false prophets who condoned their unjust and cruel practices (6:11)... Continued arraignment of the wanton and inhuman cruelty of the ruling classes, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO JERUSALEM (10), and in particular to the religious leaders (5:7, 11). Then Micah pronounces the doom of Jerusalem (12), as he had, in (1:6), of Samaria." (Halley's Bible Handbook: p366 -- Chapters 2, 3. Brutality of the Rulers)

Is what is going on in Jerusalem part of the prophecy?
If you mean: "'I will make Jerusalem and Judah [the Jews] like a cup of poison to all the nearby nations that send their armies to surround Jerusalem. Jerusalem will be a heavy stone burdening the world. And though ALL THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH unite in an attempt to move her, they will all be crushed.'" (Zech.12:2-3 LVB Living Bible)Then, YES. That's what's happening.
