Celebration of Christmas all over the world, but why silence in the place where Jesus Christ was born?
Christmas is being celebrated all over the world today. Everyone is remembering Jesus Christ and vowing to follow the path shown by him. But today there is silence in ‘Bethlehem’, the birthplace of Jesus Christ. Here neither the sound of ‘jingle bells’ is coming, nor are people heard saying ‘Merry Christmas’. This deserted city is not even celebrating its biggest festival, what is the reason for this? Let us know.
Tourists come from all over the world
People and tourists from all over the world come to Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus Christ, during Christmas. The splendor of this city on Christmas Day is worth seeing. Christians believe that Jesus was born in the ‘Church of the Nativity’ of this city. This church is famous in the world, people come to see it with great interest. But for the first time in history it is not celebrating the birthday of Jesus Christ.
Why didn’t we celebrate Christmas?
Actually, the city of Bethlehem falls in Palestine i.e. West Bank occupied by Israel. There is a war going on between Israel and Hamas, people here are hiding in their homes due to the sounds of bomb blasts. The traders here say that this time no guest came here, not even a single one. A businessman said that his family has been living in Bethlehem for generations, but they have never had such a bad Christmas day.
Israel carried out airstrike on Gaza
