Video shows aftermath of a deadly blast at an Orthodox church in Gaza City
#Gaza #Israel #MiddleEast
Only Satans followers will strike a Church filled with Christians
DEADLY BLAST. No mention whatsoever of izreel. Typical western media. Pro in whitewashing news in favor of izreel.
Freedom of speech, they say, meh! More like freedom to cover up squatter izreel.
You guys are real proof that we will have a Judgment Day where the less privileged will finally be heard.
Israel : Rockets got misfired from them not me. I don’t lie because we are Zionists who crucified Jesus.
So what do you have to say to have your comment disappear. Is it a mention on AIPAC?
Double standards have changed since Ukraine
Hit by Alien?
Or Thanos conquer the earth?
Isn’t this like the third oldest church in the world?
“hit by an explosion”??? What kind of backwards, biased, fake, pro genocidal reporting is this? Shame on you!
This church actually housed all those who lost their homes as a result of the war, including children, women, and the elderly. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by the Israeli army on top of them, and many of the victims, Christians and Muslims, died.
Biden just made a statement that based on US intel with the supplied data from israel, Hamas bombed the church.
“A greek orthodox church in gaza strip was hit by a deadly explosion.”
Shameful wording by shameful media
Who they gonna blame this time?
The Israeli military has been calling on all civilians to leave the north of the Gaza Strip for at least four days ago. Why is this not being complied with? The church stands in a place where civilians were no longer allowed to stay.
Don’t forget who started the current war and with what!
Dear Mr. troll, Israel is committing war crimes. The “war” started decades ago so run away with the troll food doggy biscuit that was just thrown at you.
Israel:ohh… That’s not me
World:ohh.. Okay👌
The Zionists struck again, eh?
And probably humas under the church in
Tunnels
Blast? Naked journalism by western media it was actual israeli terror regime attacks on that Church but they say blast what a hypocrisy!
This didn’t even show up on Canadian news or CNN
So that was also done “by the other team” as the Big Guy mentioned before about the hospital bombing?
I am a part of the church of Jerusalem.
Bb is demonic
Against all laws of this universe.
Israel = USA
Free the Christian’s Muslims, Free Palestine
Imagine you shelter in the Church thinking it is going to be safe. Yet this savage Jews dont care.
Zionist Jews not all Jews support Israel
I would like to remind the government of the united states (aka the president), the significant amount of Greek Americans that will vote in the next elections.
😭😭😭😭
This church stayed for more than a one thousand years under all the muslim kingdoms. But it got bombed and destroyed only 75 years after Israel conception. People should reflect on that.
No musical festival, no paragliding,no hamas. What happened to ten thousands of death of palestininans before that.
If their excuse is Bombing hamas
That explains Biden’s IQ 🤷♂️
The most disrespectful and retardant leader ever lead us
Why do they say deadly blast every time, we all know its the criminal state of Isreals missles.
Terrorists have no religion!
😂😂😂 ,How US media HIDES the information, this CHURCH was the 3RD OLDEST CHURCH IN THE WORLD.
It’s not Israel (it’s Palestine)
It’s not Nazareth (it’s Al Nasra)
It’s not Acre (it’s Akka)
It’s not Beit She’ an (it’s Bisan)
It’s not Tel Aviv Yafo (it’s Yaffa)
It’s not Jaffa, (it’s Yaffa)
It’s not Hebron (it’s Al Khalil)
It’s not Jerusalem (it’s Al Quds)
It’s not Jericho (it’s Arecha)
It’s not Lod (it’s al-Lydd)
It’s not Bethlehem (it’s Bayt Lahm)
It’s not the Negev (it’s al-Naqab)
It’s not Beer Sheva, (it’s Bir As-Saba’)
It’s not Tiberias, (it’s Tabariyya)
It’s not Gush Halav, (its Al-Jish)
Western Christians don’t care about any church being bombed only care about LGBT, BLM & Mega business rightThey all become athiest lately. So no need to cry
Ich sehe Es. Ich spüre Es. Die Juden werden wieder verlieren wegen ihrer ewigen Eier Scheisse. Euer Gott möchte nicht dass ihr oben steht. So wie beim Warschauer Ghetto wird er euch wieder in den Arsch treten.
Im from a Christian family and can confirm that most Christians unfortunately support this.
Fox Christians: It’s okay, this is all part of Jesus’ plan 🙏. We’ll never ever forget that we are below the Masters per the Bible 🙏. We’ll always serve our Masters no matter what they do! 🙏
@C A
Ye the Je*** took control over Western Christianity.
Jesus christ is the king of JEWS and he’s GOD’s son. They destroyed his holy temple! Forgive them father, they don’t know what they’ve done!
Even there is electricity their mobiles will be shutdown soon. 😢
False news, all false
0:31 Why do they always speak with their hands?
Free free Palestine, free Palestine God hub please Palestine God please help Palestine😢😢
This is genocide
Free Palestine !!!
Well if you don’t know by now, the antartic will be the next Hawia after the pole shift, note the down turn the the earths electromagnatizem. 67% going fast.
İsrail ülken Amerika git haydut devleti olmaz
İsrail yaptıklarına görmezlik yapılıyor ses yok
Let’s not forget these very people were dancing in the streets of Gaza in celebration shortly after the 9/11 attack on the US.
Arab and Muslim rich countries provide little humanitarian aid to Palestine. I am very sorry for the civilian population of Palestine
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏☦️☦️☦️☦️☦️☦️
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😮😮😮😮😮
The moral of this story. Do not fire rockets from the grounds of a church.
Islam is evil and their fake book calls for hate and the destruction of Israel. And you want Israel to deal with them. Muslims don’t want anything but taking all their land and doing exactly what Hamas did. This is a fact. I know and work with Muslims. This is what they truly believe and want. Stop falling for their peaceful deception. They will cut your head of if they take over the world.
So Palestinian Christians are also Hamas? Christians countries giving to Jewish nation to destroy oldest Christians in the world.
GOD of ISRAEL😅😅😢😢😂Omg!!
Wake up world. Israel doesn’t care for any human. #freepalestine #boycottisrael
“blast” “hit” wow they’re exposing themselves here all of them
Well, this is a true colour of Israhell for you!
Biden will say it was done by Palestinians 😂. BTW, 20% of Palastinians are Christians.
The jews had sought asylum from Palestine decades ago, they prospered there with the kindness of the Palestinians, then started occupying Palestinian territories through aggression and political prowess and now… . The world can see how the jews paid the kindness and generosity of the Palestinians. Yet US supports Israel. Looks like US loves bloodshed and carnage of the weak.
m8
This war is going to get 10 time worst. So, get ready.
Look im a Christian but thjs hamas uses everywhere as shelter and a place to shoot rocket to Israel. Israel dlmt just target a particular building but strategically they use it as a place to store bomb and also shoot their rockets
This IDF SAID THEY ATTACKED HAMMAS BUT NO BODIES OF HAMAS FIGHTERS ARE DISCOVERED ON SIDE..AND YET FOR TWO WEEKS HAMAS KEEP FIGHTING & LAUNCHING THEIR ATTACK..WITH THE HIGH END TECHNOLOGY WEAPON THEY STILL UNABLE TO DETECT HAMAS FIGHTERS..WHAT A HOPELESS IDF😂😂😂😂
Biblical wars has been going on for millennials
God please please stop this please people suffering 🙏
Blame Hamas. This all started because of them.
Sometimes mistakes happen in war. Sometimes the enemy uses human shields to try to protect itself. Hamas, ISIS and Hezbollah are famous for this: Command and Control radio towers on hospitals, ammunition warehouses in schools, rocket launchers next to mosques. Islam doesn’t like Christians of any sort so it is not out of character for them to explode the Church to create an instant worldwide press release.
Israel is not out to slaughter civilians the way Hamas does. The world knows this. So this was a military target housed in or adjacent to the church – or Hamas did this intentionally or incompetently the way they blasted a hospital parking lot a few days ago. But no matter, blame it on Israel and the Islamic world and Leftist media will regurgitate the lie in perpetuity.
Vision: There were many men standing in the structure of Mecca. They were emotionless, standing like soldiers. They wore a green coat down their knees with Allah writings engraved in gold. They wore black loose pants and pointy shoes. They had a unique head piece. Their head piece was the shape of Mecca in black.
Their swords neatly rested across their body.
They were like standing inside a square looking at the building, hands down in a soldier pose. They were not worshiping.
I didn’t see any other people around them.
Are these elite soldiers?
I can’t find a picture of it.
Израиль совершает жертвоприношения Антихристу!!!
Hamas-Holes will do anything to gain political points.
When it’s Muslims you support the barbaric terror state.. You hypocrytes…. Now it’s Christians your comments change…..
This church is 2000 years old
It’s 3rd oldest church in the world
A deadly blast? Really? Still trying to hide that it was a bombed by IDF
How many arab countries are they how many muslim are they yo all scared of what ???
Talk about war crimes
The sad thing is this church served as a refuge to Christians and Muslims seeking a safe haven from the war. You are despicable Israel. You are a criminal and I pray you are held accountable in the international court of law for your war crimes against humanity!
there are churches in gaza, which israel destroyed. the christians were worshiping freely under hamas, but in israel the christians are spit on 😏
Bleak future for the followers of extremist prophet Muhammad Biblically
The unpleasant smell of dead churches and mosques in Israel really bothered the immortals of a realm where they called the dear Lord there as the Son of Man who accepted the challenging tasks and carry His cross
The name or word Allah there cannot rebuke nor conquer the Devil
Earth will not come to its end unless all words of the dearest Almighty at the sacred scriptures not Quran will transpire
This is terrible news reporting. Are you not allowed to call it what it is? “An Israeli Airstrike destroys the oldest Church in the world (2000 years old) where 500 Christians were seeking shelter”.
As a Greek Christian Orthodox, I have to say, that it is terrible that Orthodox Christians are dying and a place of such significance for orthodoxy is being destroyed may god protect our Orthodox brothers in Gaza ☦❤
AMERICA IS GIVING JEWS WEAPONS TO BOMB CHRISTIANS – this is deeper than I thought
What is this church in the north or south of Gaza because I’m pretty sure they told them to evacuate the north
Notuce it didn’t say bombed or sit strike by Israel
Perhaps, you should change who you worship for. Or none at all.
Israel doing what Israel does best, committing war crimes. I am waiting for the Zionist propaganda to claim it was Hamas.
The September 14 story in Foreign Affairs detailed how the FBI warned Russian Orthodox and Greek Orthodox Christian parishes about possible efforts of Russian spies to use their churches for recruitment. One suspected Russian agent was allegedly willing to blackmail church members.
💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏

Sorry for that
And still the governments of nations with christian majority are supporting Israel…
It’s funny that, from what I can tell, FOX News is nowhere to be found on this story
“Witnesses told AFP the strike appeared to have been aimed at a target close to the place of worship where many Gaza residents had taken refuge as the war raged in the Palestinian enclave.”.
What do you expect to happen when Hamas places its control centers in civilian areas???? WAKE UP!!!
It looks like the church’s Spirit Dome is not as good as the Iron Dome. God don’t like u church ppl.
Might be Hamas should stop using civilians in Gaza as their human shields and stop firing rockets out of hospitals? Might be Gazans should stop supporting terrorists? Who was on the streets on October 7st celebrating?
Christians trying to find excuses for this is just despicable, understand that Christian Zionists in the US are just as bad as jewish zionists, both are one.
And Muslims are trying to save them
Remember that Jews voted to crucify Christ. They hate us
