An Israeli airstrike targeted the Greek Orthodox Church of Saint Porphyrius in Gaza, causing significant damage and resulting in the deaths of civilians. The church, which dates back to 425 AD, was being used as a shelter for displaced Gazans, including a large number of Christians. The attack has been strongly condemned by the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in Jerusalem, which called it a war crime. The Israeli military has released footage indicating that they targeted an adjacent building but missed, hitting the street adjacent to the church compound instead. The incident has sparked outrage and mourning among the local community.
