Scores Killed As Israel Strike Church In Gaza

The Greek Orthodox Saint Porphyrius Church in Gaza City has once again become a target of Israeli strikes as the military seeks to target Hamas terrorists. The attack occurred on Thursday, resulting in numerous casualties and injuries among displaced individuals seeking shelter in the church compound.

In a press release, the Hamas-controlled interior ministry confirmed the strike, describing it as a devastating attack that caused significant loss of life and injury. Witnesses reported that the airstrike appeared to be directed towards a nearby location, but ended up damaging the church compound.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) acknowledged the strike, stating that their fighter jets targeted a command and control center responsible for launching rockets and mortars towards Israel. The IDF also confirmed reports of casualties and assured that the incident is under review.

The church facade was damaged, and a neighboring building collapsed as a result of the strike. Many injured individuals were immediately evacuated to hospitals for treatment. This is not the first time that the Greek Orthodox Saint Porphyrius Church has been caught in the crossfire of the ongoing conflict in Gaza and serves as a refuge for displaced people seeking safety amidst the hostilities.

The incident has once again raised concerns over the escalating violence in the region and the impact it has on innocent civilians. The international community continues to call for an immediate ceasefire and a peaceful resolution to the conflict between Israel and Hamas.
