The Custody of the Holy Land expresses its profound sorrow and deepest solidarity with the Christian community of Gaza, struck today by an attack from the Israeli army, which targeted the parish of the Holy Family, causing three victims and about ten wounded, all innocent civilians, including the Parish Priest, Father Gabriel Romanelli, and the Vicar.

Once again, we strongly denounce the unacceptable and cynical reality in which defenseless civilians, places of worship, and humanitarian structures become targets of violence and destruction. Posthumous requests for apologies unfortunately sound like a repeated refrain aimed at masking warlike behaviors that can no longer be tolerated.
