Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen strongly condemned perpetrators of attacks against Christians and churches in Israel, a phenomenon that has been rising in the last few months.
Cohen's comment was posted in a video on Twitter after a Foreign Ministry meeting with Shadi Khalloul, a Maronite Christian from the Galilee region, a former Knesset candidate for the Yisrael Beytenu party and active reserve officer in the Israel Defense Forces.
"We discussed issues related to the Christian community, including the issue of violence against Christians throughout Israel. This is an unacceptable and reprehensible phenomenon that we must address and prosecute the perpetrators without leniency," Cohen said.
"Jews and Christians share a strong and warm connection," Cohen continued. "Between Jews and Christians worldwide, and among Jewish and Christian citizens of Israel, we live together with mutual respect and partnership."
"I will not tolerate such repulsive phenomena, and I wish all friends that we continue to live together in mutual respect and cooperation... and continue to work together for the sake of Israel and all its citizens," he added.
