Gaza's Uneasy Christmas: First Holiday Since Ceasefire Marked by West Bank Tensions
On Christmas 2025, Christians in Gaza mark their first holiday under a fragile ceasefire. However, rising tensions from an Israeli raid in the West Bank threaten the delicate peace.
Instead of joyful bells, an uneasy silence hangs over Gaza this Christmas.

The ceasefire has silenced the guns for now, allowing for services to proceed in a calm not seen since before the last conflict. Yet, this peace feels precarious. The celebrations are marked less by festivity and more by quiet prayers for a stability that feels anything but guaranteed.
