Israeli forces bombed the Holy Family Church in Gaza, killing three people and injuring at least ten, including the priest. The attack occurred as the military continued its offensive across Gaza. Among the deceased were a 60-year-old janitor and an 84-year-old woman in a support tent. The situation left many civilians, including children and the elderly, seeking refuge in the church. Eyewitnesses reported that all those present were peaceful civilians, caught off guard by the aerial assault.
At least three people were killed and ten others injured, including a priest, in Israel's attack on the church. Israeli forces have bombed Gaza's only Catholic church.
Among those killed were the parish's 60-year-old janitor and an 84-year-old woman who was receiving psychosocial support inside a Caritas tent in the church compound.
The people in the Holy Family Compound are people who found in the Church a sanctuary hoping that the horrors of war might at least spare their lives.
The church's main hall was housing dozens of displaced citizens, mainly children and elderly people, and that all were peaceful civilians.
