Police Arrest Two Teens for Vandalizing Christian Cemetery in Jerusalem
(Reuters-Jerusalem Post-Times of Israel) Israeli police said Friday that they had arrested two teens, aged 14 and 18, from central Israel for vandalism at the Protestant Mount Zion Cemetery in Jerusalem. The Israel Foreign Ministry denounced the attack as an "immoral act" and "an affront to religion." Jerusalem District Police Commander Doron Turgeman met with church leaders and offered to help repair the damage. He said, "Any damage to religious institutions and sites is serious and damages the unique and sensitive quality of life that exists in the city, inclusive to all religions and traditions."
