The Holy Family Church in Gaza serves as a shelter for hundreds of displaced people during the ongoing conflict.
"At this moment in Gaza we are once again experiencing a humanitarian tragedy of enormous dimensions, when the water from the rain falls mixes with the water from the sewers which in reality are now mostly destroyed, so the water mixes with what remains of the sewers and also with the rubbish. People try to shelter from the rain as best they can, elderly children, people don't know what else to do, humanitarian aid is insufficient, and it is already inhumane to live in tents, it is the fourth year of war and once again we hope that all this ends and ends soon." This is the testimony from Gaza flooded by rains of Father Gabriel Romanelli, parish priest of the church of the Holy Family, the only one of Catholic rite, whose premises also serve as a refuge for hundreds of displaced people.
"We also heard in the distance - reports Father Romanelli - the echo of bombings, helicopters and drones but thanks to God, nothing happened here".
