An Israeli military strike hit Gaza’s only Catholic church, the Holy Family Church, killing at least three people and wounding several others, including a priest. The attack has drawn widespread condemnation from religious leaders, including Pope Leo XIV and the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, who called the incident and the broader humanitarian crisis in Gaza 'morally unacceptable' and 'barbaric.' Israel expressed regret, calling the strike a mistake, but the Vatican and international community have intensified calls for an immediate ceasefire and greater protection for civilians and religious sites. The incident has highlighted the dire conditions facing Gaza’s Christian minority and renewed scrutiny of Israel’s military actions in the enclave. Faith leaders and humanitarian organizations are urging urgent intervention to end the violence and address the worsening humanitarian crisis.
