Cardinal Timothy Dolan described taking shelter in Bethlehem from Iran’s missile attack on Israel, noting in a video that while things seemed “calm and bright” now that wasn’t the case overnight.

“This Sunday in Bethlehem all does seem calm and bright. And it is for us. We feel safe and secure,” He said in a video shared on X. “That wasn’t true in the middle of last night when the air raid sirens went off and we had to go down and seek security at Notre Dame Center.”

The Archbishop of New York continued: “But right now things look good and we’re grateful for that.”
