Earlier on Tuesday, the blue graffiti that denigrates the Christian center figures was scribbled at the gate of the Franciscan Monastery near the Domaine church.
It was removed shortly afterwards.
Located outside the walls of the Old City on Mount Zion, the Domaine church is considered by many Christians to be the place where the Virgin Mary died.
\"What happened was that a church on Mount Zion was targeted.
\"It says graffiti against Christianity and the \'price tag, \'and now we are investigating the incident,\" police spokesman Mitch Rosenfeld told AFP . \".
The term \"price tag\" is used to refer to crimes committed against local Palestinians or Israeli security forces in retaliation for any action taken to curb settlement expansion.

Tuesday\'s attack was the second in less than a month against Christian websites.

Settlement vandals defaced the Latrun monastery in the West Bank and wrote \"Jesus is a monkey\" in an orange large letter on its outer wall \".

The tires of the car were also cut.
Christian leaders condemned the attack, saying the \"hate forces\" had used the violence as a scapegoat.
Prime Minister Benjamin netaenhu said those responsible for last month\'s \"criminal act\" must be \"severely punished \".
