Sami El-Yousef, CEO OF the Latin Patriarchate, Jerusalem writes on Facebook:

Just as we are paying the last invoices for the renovation and fixing damages sustained during last summer's incursion into Jenin, a new one takes place creating massive damage to the Latin church / convent complex in the city centre of Jenin (editor - this is in the West Bank, not Gaza.)

In the process, the Main Street was bulldozed destroying all infrastructure.

Is this the beginning of turning the West Bank into another Gaza?

When will the world community determine that enough is enough. When will Israel acknowledge that military might will not bring peace but give birth to more hatred and resistance and not peace and justice. Let us keep praying for a miracle!
