The Increasing Hostility Towards Christians in the Holy Land: Voices from the Field

In light of the disturbing increase of attacks against Christians in Jerusalem and other areas of the Holy Land, we want to offer local and international audiences a nuanced analysis of what is happening in the field.

Hana Bendcowsky, will shed light on the urgent need to address this issue from an Israeli Jewish perspective, examining what this says about changes within Israeli society and exploring potential solutions to tackle the problem.
