Israel bombed s Catholic church in the Gaza Strip, on Thursday, July 17, 2025.
This Israeli bombing killed three people and wounded 10 others, including the parish priest, Father Gabriel Romanelli. The church compound was sheltering hundreds of Palestinians, including Christians and Muslims, who were displaced by the Israel-Hamas war.
Israel expressed regret over the incident, describing it as an accident, and stated that they are investigating. The Israeli military claims that fragments from a shell fired during operational activity in the area mistakenly hit the church.
The attack has drawn condemnation from various international figures and organizations, including the Vatican, NPR, and the United Nations Secretary-General.
Two different churches.
One church located in Gaza, hit un-intentionally by broken IDF shell.
Another, in Samaria, ancient church’s grounds had a fire that was un-wittingly “fought” for a while - fanning the flames.
You don’t mean to tell me that the islamist psychos lied to us do you?
Because I would not be shocked at all to learn that.
Not one little bit.

But in the following recent photo, that building is intact (to your right, from the church):
