After the Holy holiday, the Presepio (Nativity Scene) remains displayed in St Peter’s Square at the Vatican.
In the days following Christmas, the Catholic Church honors the Holy Innocents along with St. John the Apostle and St. Stephen, the first martyr.
On Friday, a topless activist from the “feminist” group Femen rushed the display in an attempt to steal the statue of baby Jesus before being tackled by Italian police.
The woman is apparently a pro-Ukraine protestor.
The woman climbed over the barriers protecting the Nativity scene set up by the Vatican for Christmas but was immediately blocked by officers and taken away.
The protest was staged, the Femen group explained in a statement, to urge action against Russia, and to draw attention to what they said is ‘’Russia’s abduction of over 700,000 Ukrainian children, and the inaction of the Pope and international institutions.”

Perhaps if baby Jesus had been lying on a Palestinian keffiyeh, as the Vatican allowed early this month before public outrage forced its removal, the unhinged activist might have left baby Jesus alone so as not to upset the radical left.
On Christmas Eve, Pope Red Francis opened the Holy Doors or Sacred Portal at The Vatican to mark the start of the 2025 Jubilee, a year of forgiveness, reconciliation, and spiritual renewal.
Catholics who confess their sins during this time receive absolution, freeing them from eternal or spiritual punishment.
