Israeli police arrested a 36-year-old man suspected of attacking a nun near Jerusalem's Old City, an assault captured on video that has intensified concern among Christian leaders over violence and harassment targeting clergy, worshippers, and religious symbols in Israel and areas under Israeli military control.
The attack happened Wednesday, April 29, near David's Tomb, a religious site close to Zion's Gate and the walls of the Old City, according to The Associated Press. Police said Friday that the suspect was arrested and that the case is being investigated as a possible racially motivated assault.
