Israeli forces attack Christians during “Sabbath of Light“ celebrations in Jerusalem

Tensions have heightened in Jerusalem’s Old City after Israeli forces attacked Christians celebrating the “Sabbath of Light“. The assault comes after the Greek Orthodox Church on Wednesday slammed Israel’s “heavy-handed restrictions” on freedom of worship. The holy event is typically marked by peace and unity and is part of the Easter celebrations in occupied East Jerusalem. #SabbathOfLight Subscribe to our channel: Middle East Eye Website: Follow us on TikTok: @middleeasteye Follow us on Instagram: Like us on Facebook: Follow us on Twitter:
