Haifa, according to eyewitness, the o!cial Palestinian
news agency, WAFA reported on Sunday.

Witnesses said that around 50 Israeli Jewish settlers

who arrived in the vicinity of the church by minibuses
tried to break into the church, but they were
confronted by Palestinian youths.

This was the second time within a week that Israeli

settlers attempted to raid the church, and each time
the Palestinian community attempted to push back
against the attackers.

In March this year, two Israeli settlers broke into the

Church of Gethsemane in occupied Jerusalem and
tried to sabotage the content inside the church but
were confronted and foiled by a Palestinian man who
was present at the church.

In December 2020, an Israeli settler also attempted

to burn down the Gethsemane Church in the Mount
of Olives area in occupied East Jerusalem.

Joanne Moston says:

It’s wicked to desecrate Christian Churches as

thousands of Christians come to the Holy places
every year, to the sites where Jesus walked, and bring
business to hotels,shops etc. I think the worst culprits
are the immigrant Israelis from America and maybe
some from Europe.
