Settlers' Fires Threaten Taybeh’s Heritage: Priests Urge Immediate International Intervention
Taybeh - "Nabd ElHaya" – In a statement released today, Tuesday, July 8, 2025, the priests of the Churches of Taybeh – Latin, Melkite Greek Catholic, and Greek Orthodox – issued a clear call to the world, expressing deep concern over the increasing and repeated attacks, documented by Israeli settlers, targeting the town's land, holy sites, and properties, amid official silence that exacerbates the sense of danger and lack of protection.
On behalf of themselves, the townspeople, and their parishioners, the priests strongly condemned these attacks, which threaten the security and stability of Taybeh, as well as targeting the dignity of its residents and the sanctity of its land.
The statement, signed by
Father Daoud Khoury, Father Jack-Nobel Abed, and Father Bashar Fawadleh,

residents and disrupting their historic and religious heritage.... READ MORE https://nabd10.ps/en/news/settlers-fires-threaten-taybehs-heritage-priests-urge-immediate-international-intervention
