Diplomatic efforts have been intensifying to get aid into Gaza as Israel prepares a ground invasion to destroy Hamas. Pizzaballa said that about 1,000 Christians were sheltering in Church buildings in northern Gaza after their homes were destroyed in Israeli strikes. Hamas, which runs Gaza, has told people to ignore Israel's message.

Israel Protests Pope Francis' Statement on Gaza
  + stars: | 2023-10-16 | by ( Francis X. Rocca | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
"It is inconceivable that an announcement essentially expressing concern for the residents of Gaza is issued at the same time Israel is burying 1,300 murdered citizens," Israel's Minister of Foreign Affairs Eli Cohen said in a statement on Sunday evening. Earlier in the day, the pope had called for humanitarian corridors for Gaza and for the release of civilian hostages held by Hamas. Cohen spoke with his Vatican counterpart, Archbishop Paul Gallagher, on Sunday evening, the Israeli foreign ministry said, and called on the Vatican to unequivocally condemn the attacks. On Monday, the pope's representative in the Holy Land, Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, said that he was willing to offer himself in exchange for Israeli children being held hostage.

[1/5] Pope Francis attends the consistory ceremony to elevate Roman Catholic prelates to the rank of cardinal, in Saint Peter's Square at the Vatican, September 30, 2023. There are now 137 cardinal electors, about 73 percent of them chosen by Francis. This increases - but does not guarantee - the possibility that the next pope will share his vision of a more progressive, inclusive Church. They are known as cardinal electors. On October 4, he will open a month-long major meeting in the Vatican, known as a synod, that could chart the Church's future.

The biblical town of Bethlehem is gearing up for what residents hope will be a merry Christmas, with thousands of visitors expected to descend upon the traditional birthplace of Jesus as it rebounds from the coronavirus pandemic. Tourism is the economic lifeblood of this town in the occupied West Bank, and for the past two years, the pandemic kept international visitors away. “We are celebrating Christmas this year in a very much different way than last year,” said Palestinian Tourism Minister Rula Maayah. Police were erecting barricades in Manger Square, as marching bands played drums and bagpipes. Still, present-day reality was visible at Manger Square as banners showing photos of Palestinian prisoner Nasser Abu Hamid were prominently displayed.
În timpul slujbei de Ajun din Betleem, locul în care s-a născut Iisus, oficiată la miezul nopţii de joi spre vineri într-o atmosferă sobră şi în faţa unui număr extrem de redus de credincioşi şi de preoţi, patriarhul latin al Ierusalimului, Pierbattista Pizzaballa, s-a rugat pentru încheierea pandemiei de coronavirus, informează DPA şi AFP. "Îi cerem Lui, atotputernicului Dumnezeu, să învingă boala, răul şi moartea şi să ne dea înapoi bucuria şi zilele liniştite", a declarat patriarhul din Ierusalim. El s-a rugat, de asemenea, pentru ca Dumnezeu să îi lumineze pe politicienii şi medicii care caută soluţii pentru binele comun. El a dorit însă să transmită şi un mesaj de speranţă, spunând că omenirea a avut parte recent de "o oră de graţie divină". Acest teritoriu, în care trăiesc 4 milioane de palestinieni, a raportat până acum 800 de decese asociate maladiei COVID-19, scrie agerpres.ro.
