The Roman Catholic church’s most senior cleric in the Holy Land said Tuesday that the humanitarian situation in Gaza was “morally unacceptable,” after visiting the war-torn Palestinian territory.
“We have seen men holding out in the sun for hours in the hope of a simple meal,” Latin Patriarch Pierbattista Pizzaballa told a news conference. “It’s morally unacceptable and unjustified,” he added.
