Al-Quds’ Hanna: Israeli arrest campaign will not scare us

Atallah Hanna, the Archbishop of Sebastia from the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in occupied Jerusalem, said, “The Israeli arrest campaign carried out against a number of national figures is a threatening message which will not deter us from serving our people and calling for justice in this sacred land”.

He stressed the refusal of the US President Donald Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as capital of Israel.

Israeli forces launched a large-scale arrest campaign in the West Bank and Occupied Jerusalem against 40 leaders and activists including a senior leader of Hamas Movement and deputy in the Palestinian Legislative Council.
