Protestant Churches of America against actions of Israeli forces in Hebron
Christian clergy against actions of Israeli forces in Hebron
(PNN) A delegation from the Protestant Churches of America visited the Islamic charities threatened with closure in the southern West Bank's Hebron on Sunday. Israeli forces shut down an orphanage, confiscated equipment from a bakery and sewing shop, and have issued closure notices for several other charitable organizations. The buildings are to be kept closed and unused, while some will be confiscated by Israeli forces. The visiting group was particularly disturbed by the targeting of orphanages and their sponsoring organizations. The delegation of dozens of Christian clergy visited several impoverished students and families throughout the city and other orphanages. The group said that they would convey to the world what they saw: the persecution of orphans, their food and clothing, without justification or reason. The Christians also expressed their solidarity with the Muslim faith and the right to freedom of movement and religion.
