Security footage shows men smashing stone cross at Jerusalem cemetery

Vandals' clothing leads to claims they are Jewish extremists who have desecrated over 30 Christian graves

Security camera footage of men dressed in Jewish religious clothing and smashing a stone cross in a historic Jerusalem cemetery has led to claims that Israeli extremists are responsible for the desecration of more than 30 Christian graves.

The vandalism at the Protestant cemetery on Mount Zion, conducted in broad daylight on Sunday afternoon, has shocked church leaders and led to calls for Israel to crack down on racist far-right settlers.
