Man arrested after attacking French nun in Jerusalem

A 36-year-old man was arrested after video emerged of him attacking a French Catholic nun and archaeological researcher on a Jerusalem street on Tuesday. The attacker pushed her to the ground and kicked her as she lay there; the nun suffered facial grazing but no serious injuries. Israeli police charged the suspect with religious hate crime, with authorities condemning the assault as part of a broader pattern of harassment of Christian clergy in the Old City.
