Today, we returned to Khan al-Ahmar. The E1 project puts this historic Bedouin village at immediate risk of demolition โ€”a direct violation of intl. law that undermines any chance for peace. We remain resolute in our opposition to these evictions and all settlement expansion.
E1 is illegal under international law and undermines any chance for peace. In Khan al Ahmar, communities face an imminent threat of demolition and displacement. We oppose any evictions and stand firmly against settlement expansion.

Settler violence in the West Bank is at unprecedented levels. Together with the United Kingdom, France and Italy, we call on the Government of Israel to end its expansion of settlements. For a comprehensive and just peace based on a two-state solution.

Very concerned about the increasing attacks against Christians in Jerusalem and the West Bank. Jerusalem is sacred to Jews, Christians and Muslims alike โ€” it must remain a place of peaceful coexistence.
Von zunehmenden รœbergriffen (Anspucken, Vandalismus, Brandstiftung) auf Christen in #Jerusalem und Westjordanland berichtete mir besorgt @PaterNikodemus. Jerusalem ist fรผr #Juden, #Christen und #Muslime heilig und muss es bleiben: interrelig. Dialog Toleranz sind daher zentral.
