Gaza Church Looted
One of Gaza’s only churches was ransacked and looted Monday.
Masked armed terrorists broke into the Latin Church and Rosary Sisters School and destroyed crucifixes, Bibles and Christian artwork, as well as breaking the furniture and equipment there. The looters stole computers that were in the church’s offices.
Hamas denied it was behind the attack, though it has sent thousands of armed men to disarm rival armed groups in recent days, leading locals to suspect members of the Islamist group.
