<p>Our Embassy in Tel Aviv is in regular contact with representatives of churches
on a range of issues, including to discuss concern about attacks on places of worship.
The last attack occurred on 17 January 2016 where the Dormition Abbey compound of
the Orthodox Church in the Old City of Jerusalem was vandalised with anti-Christian
slogans. The ‘Tag Meir’ organisation has listed 44 cases of vandalism and arson on
Christian and Muslim places of worship in Israel and the West Bank since December
2009.</p>
