Spain’s PM condemns Israel blocking Latin Patriarch at holy site Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has condemned Israel after authorities blocked the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem from leading Palm Sunday Mass at one of Christianity’s holiest sites.

"Netanyahu has prevented Catholics from celebrating Palm Sunday at the holy sites in Jerusalem," he posted on X.
