As a result, the Jerusalem Municipality is suspending the collection actions it has taken in recent weeks.\nIn addition, following a request by the heads of the churches to enter negotiations regarding the sale of land in Jerusalem, Prime Minister Netanyahu has asked Minister Hanegbi to examine the issue. While the Minister is doing so, all legislative activity on the matter will be suspended.\nPM Netanyahu added that he is proud that Israel to be the only country in the Middle East where Christians and believers of all faiths have full freedom of religion and worship. Israel is home to a flourishing Christian community and welcomes its Christian friends from all over the world.\nDiscover out our latest videos about the economic news in Israel :\u00a0\n\u00a0\n\n","author":75,"featured_media":3474,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","tags":[5761,5751,5757,2961,5750,5759,5762],"location":[1021],"class_list":["post-27804","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-decision-makers","tag-economy","tag-entertainment","tag-institutions","tag-news","tag-politics","tag-trending","location-israel"],"short_url":"","have_related_news":null,"chapo":"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made a statement in which he pushes stakeholders as Jerusalem mayor to impose municipal taxes on properties owned by churches that are not houses of worship.","media":{"src":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/03\/church_of_the_dormition_-_old_city_-_jerusalem_-_israel_5683924949-scaled.jpg","srcset":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/03\/church_of_the_dormition_-_old_city_-_jerusalem_-_israel_5683924949-scaled.jpg 550w","sizes":"550px","alt":"Israel: How to tax places of non-workship?
