This is what the parish priest of Gaza, Father Gabriel Romanelli, says. "An order has arrived to evacuate the entire neighborhood. And they said they have started distributing tents. One might think it is good news, 'how nice!', but this has to do with the evacuation of the entire city of Gaza", but "where can all the inhabitants" of the Strip, "two million three hundred thousand people...". During yesterday's mass "we heard a very large explosion nearby that broke a water tank, fortunately nothing happened, only material damage", "another Sunday of war".
The parish priest of the Holy Family in Gaza, Father Gabriel Romanelli, in his daily update on the living conditions in the parish, which is located in the al-Zaytun neighborhood of Gaza, in the north of the Strip, also speaks of "contradictory signs" because "an association distributed some vegetables, tomatoes, potatoes" and "people are happy because they like them and need them". But then comes the evacuation order for the entire neighborhood and the announcement of the distribution of tents for displacement. A month after the attack on the parish itself, on July 17, the Argentine missionary recalls that "the children need everything". On the situation of the conflict in general he comments: "There is no agreement, they do not want to release the hostages, or only partially, the other side says 'no, all together'... the only thing certain is that the bombs continue to cause deaths, civilians, children, the numbers are terrible".
At least 11 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli army (IDF) attacks in the Gaza Strip since dawn today, including four people while waiting for humanitarian aid: Al Jazeera reports.
