The Israeli-Armenian community is facing significant pressure from various forces that threaten their existence, with tensions rising concerning land ownership and community integrity.
Chasms have emerged between the Armenian Patriarchate and the mainly secular community, prompting concerns over the church's ability to protect their dwindling population amidst ongoing threats.
A member from the community expresses that 'the luxurious project proposed by Xana Capital is not just a building but a direct attack on Armenian heritage and identity in Jerusalem.'
Community members denounce the 98-year lease to Xana Capital, asserting that this agreement not only endangers their communal spaces but also undermines their rights to the land they've inhabited for centuries.
