Palestine condemned on Sunday Israeli police assaults on Christians
during the Holy Saturday celebrations as “racist” and “a blatant
violation of the freedom of worship and access to holy sites”, Anadolu >reports.
On Saturday, Israeli police clashed with Palestinian Christians during
the Holy Saturday observances at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in
the Old City of Jerusalem.
“We decry the arbitrary actions, assaults, and restrictions imposed by >Israeli soldiers and illegal settlers throughout the Easter holiday on >Christians, preventing their participation in this global human
celebration,” the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The ministry also denounced footage showing Israeli soldiers
assaulting visitors to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
It rejected Israeli moves to prevent the Vatican’s ambassador from
entering the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and obstructing Palestinian >Christians from the occupied West Bank from participating in the
celebrations in occupied Jerusalem.
“The Israeli practices against Christians are racist and
discriminatory, part of a broader agenda to target Jerusalem and its >Christian and Islamic sanctities, and represent a blatant violation of
the freedom of worship and access to holy sites amid an ongoing
genocide and displacement crimes against our people.”
For the second year in a row, participation in Holy Saturday and
Easter ceremonies has been visibly reduced amid relentless Israeli
attacks in the Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank.
Tension has been high in the occupied West Bank, where at least 952 >Palestinians have been killed and over 7,000 others injured since the
start of the Gaza war in October 2023, according to Palestinian
figures.
In July 2024, the International Court of Justice declared Israel’s >decades-long occupation of Palestinian land illegal and demanded the >evacuation of all existing settlements in the West Bank and East
Jerusalem.

How Israel treats its non-Jewish population is no different than how
South Africa treated blacks or Germany its minorities. For shame!
"The State of Israel will be judged not by its wealth, nor by its
army, nor by its technology, but by its moral character and its human >values."
- Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion, 1955, Israel’s first prime minister
and defense minister.
Do you believe that President Donald Trump is a pedophile who hates Jews?
Even Fox News Network is talking about it.
