PA outlet says its VP was let into Bethlehem for Xmas celebration only after US intervention
The Palestinian Authority’s official news agency WAFA says Israeli forces initially prevented the convoy of PA Vice President Hussein al-Sheikh from entering Bethlehem this afternoon for the Christmas celebrations there.
Al-Sheikh was let in following US intervention, WAFA says. It does not say how long he was held up.
The IDF does not respond to a request for comment on the report.
