The Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem condemned the activity carried out by a group of Israeli radicals, under the protection of the Israeli army, on lands belonging to Saint Savvas Monastery yesterday.
Those radical groups are lurking to undermine the Patriarchate’s real estate.
Regarding the matter, Father Issa Musleh, spokesperson for the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem, said that Patriarch Theophilos III of Jerusalem and all of Palestine and Jordan, is personally following up this issue of the continuous attempts of attacking the lands of Saint Savvas Monastery and that the Patriarchate is working on all legal and diplomatic levels to stop these attacks and prevent them in all ways.
Father Musleh added that protecting and preserving Orthodox real estate is a top priority for Patriarch Theophilos III, especially with the increase in radicals’ ambitions to seize them.
