During an EWTN News interview, Bishop William Shomali said the situation in the West Bank continues to be ‘critical.’

Christian leaders in the Holy Land say they “strongly denounce” the Israeli attack on the Holy Family Catholic Church in Gaza, which happened on Thursday.

The Israeli military acknowledged that the strike on Thursday, in which a tank shell hit the church, was a 'mistake.' Meanwhile, its airstrikes continue to kill dozens of civilians every day in the besieged enclave.
