Palestinian Christians are victims of the conflict too, Anwar points out


KUALA LUMPUR: Palestinian Christians have been victimised just as much as their Muslim brothers and sisters, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim while condemning Israel’s violence in Palestine.

“For those who continue to think or suggest that the atrocities committed against the Palestinians affect Muslims alone, let (me remind you) that the world’s most ancient Christian community resides in Palestine, totalling 47,000 based on a census conducted in 2017,” he said during Prime Minister's Question Time in the Dewan Rakyat on Tuesday (Oct 31).
