      Christian Arabs Hold Parade for 12th Day of Christmas


      On Sunday, members of the Christian Arab community of Jaffa held a parade for the 12th day of Christmas. Portions of Yefet Street were closed as children, many dressed in Santa Claus style costumes, marched down the street. The parade was partially sponsored by the Tabeetha School in Jaffa. The port city of Jaffa is known in Hebrew as Yaffo. It is located next to Tel Aviv.
