Palestinian citizen thwarts church attack by Israeli settlers
Two extremist Jewish settlers tried on Sunday morning to attack the Church of All Nations (Church of Gethsemane) on the Mount of Olives in Occupied Jerusalem.
 
According to the Palestinian Authority’s Governorate of Jerusalem, two settlers broke into the Church and tried to wreak havoc on its contents, but a Palestinian citizen confronted them and managed to thwart their attack.
 
Later, the Israeli police reportedly arrested one of the settlers while the other one escaped.
 
This was the fifth settler attack on a Christian place of worship during the current year.
 
Earlier this year, settlers vandalized a Christian cemetery in Occupied Jerusalem over the New Year holiday, smashing crosses and knocking down headstones on more than 30 graves.
