While Monday night’s barrage of rockets fired from Gaza into Israel, and the subsequent retaliatory shelling by Israeli forces, grabbed all the headlines, hotspots were emerging in Israel’s mixed towns.
Hundreds of Israeli Arabs took to the streets to demand an end to the repression in occupied East Jerusalem and especially against last weekend’s riots at the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Jerusalem, Dec 23 (efe-epa).- On Thursday, the Holy Land will mark what will surely be the most subdued Christmas ever, with borders closed to foreigners and the painful absence of Christian pilgrims who usually celebrate the birth of Jesus in Jerusalem and Bethlehem at this time of year.
The coronavirus and related restrictions will make for an unprecedented Christmas celebration: the surroundings of the Basilica of the Nativity in Bethlehem – where according to tradition Jesus Christ was born – are almost completely empty.
Although the traditional decorations are still there, such as the radiant Christmas tree, the atmosphere is ghostly silent compared to the joyful atmosphere and crowded streets of years gone by.
