Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem condemn killing of Gaza aid seekers
The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem, an ecumenical group of Christian leaders, condemned the “wanton attack” on Thursday during which more than 100 people were killed in Gaza as they were collecting aid supplies.
“Although government spokesmen initially tried to deny the soldiers’ involvement in this incident, later that day Israel’s Minister of National Security not only praised [Israeli] fighters for acting ‘excellently’, but also attempted to blame the victims for their own demise, charging that they had sought to harm heavily armed soldiers,” the church leaders said in a statement posted on X.
“He went on to assail the delivery of humanitarian aid into Gaza, auguring that it should cease. That stated desire has already become a harsh reality for the half-million remaining in Gaza City, where aid deliveries have nearly halted because of heavy entry restrictions and lack of security escort for the delivery convoys,” they said in their statement.
