CNEWA: Orthodox Church Building in Gaza Collapses
A multipurpose building of the Orthodox Church of St. Porphyrios in Gaza collapsed on 19 October after it was struck by a warhead. Hours after the attack, officials did not know the number of casualties, but dozens are feared dead beneath the rubble. The parish church, its school and adjacent church buildings had been sheltering up to 1,000 people, including the parents of a CNEWA staff member and on-the-ground partners, many of whom are parishioners.
CNEWA learned of the building collapse from Joseph Hazboun, the regional director of CNEWA’s Jerusalem office.
Mr. Hazboun said people have gathered at the bomb site to search for survivors, adding they are “in shock, trying hard to help as much as possible.” “We are all in tears.”

Yes. Israel would definitely target that historical site full of civilians. /
(More lazy shit-ass Hamas propaganda)
Exactly, it takes a special kind of stupid to believe hamas propaganda
We do not know who hit it. Most likely the Israelis. You forget Beirut. They bombed several hospitals there and other "non military/ humanitarian". targets. When dealing with the Israelis, you always have to remember, these are not nice people...they can be utterly ruthless when they want to be.
And considering the uptick in Anti-Christian behavior by the jews in the Holy Land , this would not be unthinkable.
Why let a perfectly good crisis go to waste?
When you clear Gaza, why not clear it of ALL non jewish elements?
Muslims are the world's premier ethnic cleanser. Hamas or Islamic Jihad did it.
Israel is going to act like Ukraine. Ukraine is using their artillery to hit Russian artillery, counter battery radar, and ammo dumps. That is their targeting list. Russia's targeting list includes civilians. This is why Russia had the firstest with the mostest in artillery and now are sucking ass in artillery duels.
"When you clear Gaza, why not clear it of ALL non jewish elements?" < Dude, Mossad needs to take out.
"When you clear Gaza, why not clear it of ALL non jewish elements?" 20% of the Israeli army is Arab. It seems to be working. Those Arabs can be Druze, Muslins or Christian and live well off and practice their religion in Israel instead of being under the thumb of PLO and Hamas suffering privation and being persecuted for not being the right flavor of Islam.
The Arab Muslims are kicking the shit out of Arab Christians in Bethlehem. It is why the Christians are leaving. So Arafat married a Christian. He go talking points from it and the muslims still kicked the hell out of Christians on the West Bank. STFU
Tunnels scare the Hell out of the Israelis. They do not want to take a lot of casualties. The tunnel threat is one of the leveraged that the leftists in the Biden have over Israel. The leftists could withhold the bunker buster bombs. Israel is focused on first degrading or destroying Hamas command and control sand definitely not going after civilians.
Evil posts like your are a problem. You will be pointed out.
Shocker, pictures in broad daylight today show this was another Hamas lie.
-the church is still standing.
- another building in the premises was struck (who knows what &who was in it)
See for yourself: https://x.com/imshin/status/1715292985439465785?s=46
Who are you going to believe, Hamas terrorists or your own lying eyes?
Not when the focus is global and they are losing the PR war
Good post
Yep hamas is going to keep repeating and running with this bs

You are idiotic
But you did say one thing that was right.
Dude, Mossad needs to take out.
Yes Mossad needs take out. Now if they order Chinese, please get me some broccoli beef and rice. A pizza? Ok mine with pepperoni,
Any thing with lead? That is for yourself after this is done, for being no longer needed as a useful idiot.
Next day pictures show the church wasnt destroyed nor targeted. It did suffer modest damage while the next door intended target was destroyed.

It reads:
Mossad needs to take the dude at 6:25 AM, since that dude is a combatant.
The Israeli army on Friday acknowledged that a church in Gaza suffered damage when its forces targeted a site it said was "close to" a Hamas commander in Gaza.
“Fighter aircraft targeted the headquarters of a military member of the Hamas (Palestinian) organization, involved in firing rockets and mortar shells towards the territory of the State of Israel,” the Israeli army’s press office told Anadolu.
The office added: “The aircraft launched a raid on the target, and (with) the ‘explosion wave’ resulting from the raid, the wall of a church located in the area was damaged."
Israel is “aware of injuries is known to us and the circumstances of the accident are being investigated," it added.
Earlier, Gaza Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf Qudra said that at least 16 Palestinian Christians were among those killed in direct Israeli attacks on a Greek Orthodox church on Thursday evening in Gaza City.

10 years ago or so Hamas set up command and control inside a hospital.
does not mean they did it this time. there are a lot of unanswered questions on this.
Last time a hospital thus in a building beside a hospital?
Hezbollah built a command an control bunker underground. Then they built a school over it.
It is what these people do.
"The IDF targeted sections of the Al-Wafa rehabilitation hospital in Gaza’s Shejaiya neighborhood on Wednesday, explaining that the medical facility was being used as a Hamas command center and utilized repeatedly by Islamist gunmen to launch attacks on Israeli forces. It said it had issued repeated warnings to the hospital authorities, told civilians to vacate the premises, and warned the gunmen to stop abusing the medical facility."
More Hamass properganda.
NO it is not , you are lying
