Bethlehem

Stranger Things star Brett Gelman put his rich comedic talent to use to support Israel during wartime by performing in a sketch on the comedy show.

Since the Palestinian Authority took control of Bethlehem in 1995, the Christian population has massively declined. Today, only around 10,000 Christians live in the city of about 75,500 residents.

While Jesus’s homeland is under attack by Islamic terrorists, the number of Palestinian Christians in the land of Israel continues to decline.

Located just south of Jerusalem, Bethlehem is heavily reliant for income and jobs on visitors from all over the world who come to see the Church of the Nativity.

"We have never seen Bethlehem like this, not even during the time of COVID. The town is empty, sad."

A spokesperson for the city also told the Telegraph, “The reason is the general situation in Palestine; people are not really into any celebration."

The discovery “may also shed light on the question – who built the first aqueduct – whether it was the Hasmoneans or perhaps King Herod," the researchers noted.

COGAT said in a statement that the building had been constructed illegally and 'was found to be dangerous to the safety of anyone studying or otherwise visiting there.'

Jerusalem is the city with the largest number of hotel rooms in Israel. Every year, hundreds of new hotels open here. By 2027, approximately 3,500 new rooms are expected to be added

This year, Israeli authorities have approved travel for nearly 600 Palestinian Christians in Gaza, according to COGAT.
