The Jerusalem Post reports that Hamas is involved in efforts to shut down one of Kalkiliya’s few Christian institutions:
Islamic religious leaders in this city have signed a petition calling on the new Hamas cabinet to shut down the local YMCA under the pretext that it is involved in “missionary activities.” The Hamas-controlled municipality has expressed its support for the call.
The campaign against the YMCA began earlier this week when arsonists set fire to some of its offices.
