This Sunday, Pope Francis condemned Israel's attack on the Catholic church in the Gaza Strip that served as a refuge, which resulted in two women dead and seven people injured.

“I continue to receive very serious and painful news from Gaza,” said the highest authority of the Catholic Church, while stressing his regret at these repeated Zionist attacks.

In this regard, he stressed that “some people say it's war. Yes, it's war. It's terrorism,” he said of Tel Aviv's warlike actions.

According to the TELESUR website, Israel's bombings have so far left around 19,000 Palestinians dead, mostly children and women, and more than 54,000 injured.
