In an article in Vatican News today, a Catholic priest in the Holy Land has raised the alarm about continued attacks on Christians in the West Bank.
Fr. Ibrahim Faltas, Head of Schools of the Custody of the Holy Land, writes starkly:
Parents are unable to bring children who need regular medical treatment to hospitals. Sons and daughters cannot reach their elderly and sick parents. Fathers are stopped at roadblocks that prevent them from going to work. These are situations that have persisted for months, even years, in the West Bank.
The people are desperate and terrified by the countless raids carried out by settlers who, with impunity, are able to spread fear and terror among the poor people, who can no longer find refuge or safety even in their own homes.
