GAZA: A mother and her daughter were killed by Israeli sniper fire today at the Holy Family Church in the Al Zaytoun neighborhood in Gaza City, according to local sources and witnesses.

The sources reported that Israeli occupation forces, besieging the neighborhood, are targeting anyone moving within the church compound.

The invading Israeli military, which has been imposing a siege around the area for several days, has demanded over 600 displaced individuals trapped inside the church compound to evacuate the premises, the sources added.

This comes in the wake of the Israeli military’s shelling earlier today of the premises of the Christian Youth Association in Gaza, housing 300 displaced individuals, resulting in casualties and injuries.
