Gaza’s Al Zeitoun Bombed, Civilians and Children Die Horribly

Vatican Insider: Yesterday morning Gaza’s Christian community was devastated by the death of two elderly women who were no longer able to endure the harsh conditions they were forced to live in after they moved into the church. To add to their sadness, a missile hit the home of Jalila Farah Aiad Um Jerjis, reducing it to rubble.

Jalila Farah Aiad Um Jerjis was burnt to death, while her husband suffered minor injuries. Their eldest son is in a deep coma. He had both his legs and a hand amputated and suffered serious burns to the face and chest. Anton, the couple’s youngest son, was attending mass in the church when the tragedy occurred.

Fr. Jorge highlighted that missiles show no favouritism, they kill the minute they land and there is no safe haven in any part of the strip. More here.
