Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster and president of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales, has spoken out following Israel’s security cabinet’s plan to take control of Gaza City.
His comments came on the feast day of Edith Stein, the convert from Judaism who became a Discalced Carmelite nun and was murdered in the gas chamber at Auschwitz.
“Today, and in these days, I weep for the people of Gaza as they face not just a continuation of their immense suffering but an escalation in their hardship and desperation.
