There are reports that the school next to the Catholic parish of the Holy Family in northern Gaza has been hit by the Israeli military.
The Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem has issued a statement following what appears either the targeting of two classrooms on the ground floor or a tragic error involving the likes of an air strike or artillery munitions:
“The Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem is monitoring, with grave concern, the news of the raids, apparently launched by the Israeli army against the Sacred Family School in Gaza this morning (7 July),” the statement says. “Footage and media reports from the place include scenes of civilian casualties and of destruction in the compound.”
