Bethlehem’s bombed-out nativity sculpture sends a powerful message

This year, Bethlehem is sombre and quiet. There is no Christmas tree and there are no holiday lights or tourists to see them. Instead, the city of Jesus’s birth – which is in the middle of a war zone – is marking Christmas with a powerful and poignant message: solidarity with Palestine. The Holy Family Cave is a sculpture that depicts a harrowing tableau: a bombed-out version of the traditional nativity cave, which many Christians traditionally believe is where Jesus was born in Bethlehem. It is the site of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. Al Jazeera’s Nida Ibrahim reports from Bethlehem. Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us […]

Christians living under occupation suffer from the same restrictions as other Palestinians

The number of Palestinian Christians across the Palestinian Territories is dropping at a rapid rate – with many blaming the stress of the Israeli occupation for leaving their country. Religious leaders say this includes restrictions on movement, lack of economic opportunities, land confiscation and people being targeted in Gaza. Al Jazeera’s Laura Khan has more from the city of Bethlehem, in the occupied West Bank.

Global supply crisis: Shipping delays for Chinese-made goods

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused logistical headaches for global shippers thanks to raised transport costs, quarantine measures and extra paperwork. China’s zero-tolerance approach to the coronavirus has not helped: in May it closed one of its busiest ports because of a COVID-19 outbreak. That has affected the supply of Chinese products to the United States, dampening the Thanksgiving Day holiday sales, when shoppers are traditionally on the hunt for bargains.
