Tragedy Strikes Gaza’s Only Catholic Church

An Israeli strike on the Holy Family Church, Gaza’s sole Catholic sanctuary, left two women dead and injured several, including Father Gabriel Romanelli, the parish priest who once spoke daily with Pope Francis. The attack damaged the church, a refuge for hundreds of displaced Christians and Muslims. Pope Leo XIV condemned the violence, urging an immediate ceasefire, while Israel called it a “mistake” and vowed to investigate. Italian PM Giorgia Meloni decried the civilian toll as “unacceptable.” This heartbreaking incident underscores the ongoing devastation in Gaza’s 21-month conflict.
