Abou Assab recalled ( about Jaffa Gate ) : “At around 10pm, I passed through the Jaffa Gate. There was a holiday atmosphere and a lot of passersby,” "I was talking to my wife on the phone, and when they heard me speak Arabic, they started yelling at me. Suddenly they sprayed me with tear gas and hit me on the head with an iron bar. I didn't do anything to them. They came at me like animals. I hope the police would catch them soon"

David Parsons says ( about Jaffa Gate ) : “For years we’ve been known because our believers come here during even the most difficult times. We held our tabernacle festival in Jerusalem during the Lebanon war, when there were no other tourists, and during the period of major terror attacks in the early 2000s,” “The annual Jerusalem march, which people wanted to cancel many times, was saved thanks to us. This year, it’s simply not possible. Anyone walking around Jaffa Gate in the Old City sees everything closed, and it’s really sad. Israel has an entire industry, many people, who depend on Christian tourism for their livelihood. Our pilgrims want very much to return here. They are in love with this place and with the people of Israel”
