◾Taybeh is the last town in the occupied West Bank where every resident is Christian. It's also under attack. Settlers have set fire to a 1,500-year-old church, taken over farmland, and now surround the town from nearly every side. On 9 August, Israel declared it a closed military zone, cutting off the tourism families rely on. More than 15 families have left Taybeh in just the last few months. Across the West Bank, over 200 Christian families have left since the Gaza war began. Dr Mitri Raheb, founder of Bethlehem's Dar al-Kalima University, has warned Christians could disappear from Palestine entirely by 2050. We followed Nora, who left Taybeh years ago but couldn't go back this year, to understand what's pushing this ancient community to disappear.
