The Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, Archbishop Pierbattista Pizzaballa, left Jerusalem on Saturday for the West Bank town of Bethlehem, the traditional birthplace of Jesus, to lead Christmas celebrations which are expected to see the return of tourists

However, numbers are still a far cry from the 3.5 million visitors who came to Bethlehem in winter 2019, just before the pandemic.

Pizzaballa left Jerusalem in a car convoy, and was scheduled to cross the Israeli built-separation barrier into the West Bank where he will lead the Midnight Mass at the Church of the Nativity, traditionally attended by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and other Palestinian officials.
