A group of extremist Israeli settlers attacked, earlier on Tuesday at dawn, the Latrun Christian Monastery in occupied Jerusalem and wrote racist graffiti describing Jesus as a “Monkey”, and other graffiti against the Christian religion in general.
The extremists also wrote the names of illegal settlement outpost in the occupied West Bank.
Israeli Ynet News reported that the wooden door of the Monastery was burnt, and that the Ministry’s abbot, father Lo’ay told its reporter that a monk sleeping in a guest room woke up to a noise and when he stepped out he saw the main door burning. He then woke up the other ministers.
The abbot told the Ynet that the attack was carried out around 3:30 am, and that the monk who was sleeping in the guest room managed to extinguish the fire before it spread.
Elias, a guard at the Monastery called the police, and told them that he drove by just before the attack and did not see anything that looks suspicious, and added that, 10 minutes later, he saw the door in flames and also saw the graffiti. more
