Russia Demands Ownership Of Alexander Nevsky Church In Jerusalem

JERUSALEM, ISRAEL - APRIL 20: People walk around as a Russian Orthodox nun prays at the basement where remnants of the emperor Constantine’s original 4th-century Holy Sepulchre church can be seen inside the Church of Saint Alexander Nevsky in the Old City on April 20, 2022 in Jerusalem, Israel. Russian President Vladimir Putin demanded recently that Israel hand over the church and its compound known as "Alexander courtyard" to Russian sovereignty according to an agreement by the previous Israeli administration.
