Russia to give funds for renovation of Star Street in Bethlehem
"Russia will also finance the upgrade of Bethlehem's historical and religious centre: the renovation of Star Street abutting the Church of the Nativity. Among other things, this is about our civilizational responsibility for the fate of Christian shrines in Palestine," said in an article published by Palestinian media.
It also became known that Russia will grant Palestine a cultural and business center in Bethlehem. The multi-functional complex was built at the expense of Russian businessmen in the period from the first quarter of 2013 to November 2015. It includes an office building, a sports center and a music center.
As reported by the UOJ, Israel is determined to clear the area around the site of the Baptism of Jesus Christ.
