Top church leaders visited Gaza on Friday after its only Catholic church was struck by an Israeli shell the day before, an attack that killed three people and wounded 10, including a priest who had developed a close friendship with the late Pope Francis.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said "Israeli raids" hit the only Catholic Church in Gaza, and she condemned attacks on civilians as "unacceptable."
