@Snippit that is anti semitic to say that.

What possible reason could the IDF have for using snipers to kill civilians inside a Catholic Church?

Because they are Palestinian. I read in a report that the IDF have taken over part of the church. Must be so hard for Layla, saying she doesn't think they will survive until Christmas 😭

@braticus It had to be intentional, as a sniper is accurate. I can't imagine - did they think they were Hamas? But what reason is there to attack nuns and disabled people?

I've been distressed by so much reported, but as a Catholic I am really heart broken by the attack on Christians and killing people in a church. Poor Layla and all those who sheltered there.

Vatican news
"Israelis have opened fire on Gaza's Christians. Following heavy bombardment overnight of the area around Holy Family Latin parish in Gaza City, dozens are reported dead, according to the Palestinian news agency Wafa, and reports continue to arrive that shooting by Israeli snipers continues during these hours.
A statement released by the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem confirmed that an Israeli sniper murdered two Christian women inside the Holy Family Parish where the majority of Christian families have taken refuge since the start of the war."

"The statement also revealed that a rocket fired from an Israeli Defense Forces tank during the morning targeted and struck the Convent of the Sisters of Mother Theresa, destroying the building's generator - its only source of electricity - while a massive fire damaged the house.
"The Convent is home to over 54 disabled persons and is part of the church compound, which was signalled as a place of worship since the beginning of the war," it said.
The building was subsequently targeted by two more rockets rendering the home inhabitable: "The 54 disabled persons are currently displaced and without access to the respirators that some of them need to survive."
