Pope Francis Condemns Israeli ‘terrorism’ After IDF Kills 2 Women At Church by dreality: 8:12am On Dec 18, 2023
Pope Francis on Sunday condemned an Israeli attack on the only Catholic church in Gaza as “terrorism.”
The Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem, the Catholic authority in the region, said Saturday that the Holy Family Church’s compound in Gaza City was under Israeli bombardment and that Israeli Defense Forces snipers killed two women on the grounds.

“A sniper of the IDF murdered two Christian women inside the Holy Family Parish in Gaza, where the majority of Christian families have taken refuge since the start of the war,” the patriarchate said.
The two women, an elderly woman and her daughter, were shot and killed while walking to a nun convent on the grounds of the parish, and seven more people were wounded by gunfire. “No warning was given, no notification was provided. They were shot in cold blood inside the premises of the parish, where there are no belligerents,” the patriarchate said.

The patriarchate said that earlier in the day, IDF tank fire targeted the Convent of the Sisters of Mother Theresa on the parish grounds, where 54 disabled persons live. The Israeli attack destroyed the building’s generator, its only source of electricity, as well as its fuel and water resources. The tank fire left the home uninhabitable, and the 54 people who lived there “are currently displaced and without access to the respirators that some of them need to survive.”

According to Vatican News, Israelis have claimed a rocket launcher is present at the parish, but Catholic authorities say there are only unarmed civilians on the compound. Pope Francis said on the parish grounds there are “no terrorists, but families, children, people who are sick and have disabilities, and nuns” and that in Gaza, “unarmed civilians are the targets of bombings and gunfire.”

The pope named the two Christian women who were killed, Nahida Khalil Anton and her daughter, Samar Kamal Anton.

That's what we have been telling these Israeli terrorist supporters that what Israel is doing in Gaza is genocide. They believe Gaza has only Muslims and no Christian is affected by Israel's bombardment of Gaza.
Only God will judge Netanyahu for this mass murder.

The church should also tell us how many christians and catholic priests that has died in the hands of these islamic miscreant allover the world and most especially in Nigeria if they are so concerned.

Vatican is not the one fighting so they should allow Israel to do the job they know how to do best. If there is a rocket launcher somewhere around the church then the IDF should crumble everything ASAP.
May the souls of the deceased rest in peace.

What were they doing in church during a war when everyone has been asked to move??
These are simple question that we need to ask them.
Hamas has killed many christians,
Recently a video surfaced where Hamas was seen killing an African student.
Anything that looks like Hamas in Gaza should be brought down
