In this picture taken on June 22, 2026, Palestinian Christian entrepreneur Issa Qassis (C), 31, is seen at his office in the city of Ramallah in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. The Christian population of the West Bank is estimated at between 40,000 and 45,000 people today, accounting for less than one percent of the population. In 1967, when Israel began occupying the territory, Christians made up around six percent. Faced with growing economic and security uncertainty, hundreds of Christians have left since the war in the Gaza Strip nearly three years ago. Qassis decided to leave his family and the startup he established in the West Bank city of Ramallah and to emigrate to the United States.
