Netanyahu Thanks Christians for Support During Israel's Ongoing Conflicts

The Israeli Prime Minister delivered a Christmas message emphasizing shared heritage and Israel's fight against 'forces of evil.'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a video message wishing Christians worldwide a Merry Christmas and expressing gratitude for their support.
Netanyahu highlighted the role of Christians in standing by Israel as it defends itself against attacks from groups like Hamas and Hezbollah.
The Prime Minister described Israel as fighting 'on seven fronts' and committed to defending the Jewish state while seeking peace with those who desire it.
The ongoing war in Gaza, which began after Hamas' October 2023 attack, has significantly affected Christian communities in the region, with over 45,000 reported deaths in Gaza.
Israel's Christian population, comprising about 1.9% of the country, continues to grow, with notable celebrations in cities like Nazareth despite the wartime challenges.
