RIYADH: ºÚÁÏÉçÇø condemned on Thursday an Israeli strike on Gaza’s only Catholic church that killed three people.
The Kingdom strongly condemns Israel’s continued attacks against innocent civilians and places of worship, the Foreign Ministry said.
The Israeli strike on Gaza’s sole Catholic Church killed three people and injured several others, the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem, which oversees the small parish, said on Thursday.
In the shelling of the Holy Family Catholic Church in Gaza, the church compound was also damaged, where hundreds of Palestinians have been sheltering from the 21-month Israel-Hamas war.
The Kingdom said that such repeated attacks in the region, without any deterrent, require a serious stance from all countries to put an end to Israeli crimes which threaten the security and stability of the region.
It reiterated its call for the international community, especially the United Nations Security Council, to confront Israeli practices and activate international accountability mechanisms for these violations.
