‘He felt our pain’: Catholic church in Gaza grieves Pope Francis’s death

Pope made nightly phone calls to the Holy Family #Catholic church from the start of the war in October 2023

"The first time he spoke to #PopeFrancis during the pontiff’s nightly calls to the Holy Family Catholic church in #Gaza City, the congregant George Antone, 44, found himself at a loss for words.

It was October 2023, a few weeks after #Hamas ignited a devastating war in the Gaza Strip by attacking #Israel. The #Palestinian territory’s tiny Christian community had taken shelter in the strip’s three churches, but that didn’t mean they were safe. An #Israeli airstrike had just hit the Greek Orthodox church, killing 18 people; soon, snipers and bombs would also kill civilians at the Holy Family."

#Israel keeps bombing #Gaza - this severely wounded #Palestinian #girl hasn't the slightest chance of survival with nearly all medical facilities out of order.

20,000 #children (and more) have been #MurderedbyIsrael during the past 563 days. The world must stop Benjamin #Netanyahu! NOW!

Released Israeli-Russian prisoner Alexander Trufanov made a statement about the #Palestinian resistance that shocked occupying Israel, its supporters and agents:
"Your kindness has been engraved in my conscience forever..."
