🇻🇦❌🇮🇱 — Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa on the ongoing hostilities in Gaza:
It really does seem that our Holy Land, which preserves the highest revelation and manifestation of God, is also the place of the highest manifestation of Satan’s power. And perhaps precisely because it is the place where the heart of salvation history is located, it is also the place where ‘the Ancient Adversary’ tries to assert himself more than anywhere else.

Such a rapid withdrawal of strategic assets from the region raises questions and is perceived as a suspicious move that could indicate a significant security development or a change in force deployment.

Dear subscribers, a Gazan family contacted us for support and we decided to reach out to you after verifying everything.
I will tell you the story of the pain and suffering I have experienced during this war. I live with my younger brothers and elderly parents under the injustice of this war and genocide. Our house was bombed a year and a half ago without warning. It fell on our heads, causing many wounds and injuries to our family members. My injury was so severe that it was almost completely shattered by the collapse of the ceiling on our heads. After two weeks of intense pain, I underwent surgery and a metal rod was placed in my left arm. It is still there to this day, and I feel immense pain for having it with me all this time. Some time later, we received extremely sad news: My sister's husband was killed by a rocket fired at a crowd of civilians in the street. My sister's husband died, leaving behind a 3-year-old daughter for my sister, who was deeply saddened by his passing. I have a younger brother who suffers from skin diseases due to the pollution of the environment in which we live. My younger brothers and my niece, who lost her father due to this war, are very hungry because we have no one to support us. My elderly father has tried to risk his life more than once to escape the trap of inhumane aid provided by the occupation, but his luck was bad. He and my mother are both 60 years old. I don't know what to say... I hope you feel our pain. The pain is indescribable. There is no food, no medicine, no care, no breadwinner. Where will we eat? How will we live? The prices are so high that my family cannot afford them. "Please, I need the compassion of merciful hearts to help us. We are dying every moment from hunger, pain, and suffering."

📝 Much like with the Russians, initial reports from officials present at today's summit appear quite pleased with today's summit. Whether this is the Russians and Europeans just playing along with Trump, or if the Trump administration has formed a really good first draft of sorts, remains to be seen.
