The Israeli military has declared Tayyibe, the last town in the occupied West Bank with an entirely Christian population, a closed military zone, banning Israelis, foreign nationals, and journalists from entering.
The order was announced by the Israeli army on Tuesday, according to Anadolu Agency. The military did not provide a reason for the closure, which comes amid heightened tensions in the region. Tayyibe, located northeast of Ramallah, is home to around 1,500 residents and is one of the few remaining Christian communities in the Palestinian territories.
