This year, Christmas will be dark in Bethlehem.

In a special Christmas edition of the CMEC podcast, CMEC Director Charlotte Leslie discusses the Israel Palestine conflict, and the Gaza crisis with The Very Reverend Canon Richard Sewell - the Dean of St George's College in Jerusalem.

Richard talks about the deep impact the terror attack of October 7th, and subsequent response from the Israeli government, is having on Jerusalem, the Palestinian people, the occupied Palestinian Territories and Israelis.
