Israeli sniper kills mother, daughter inside Gaza's only Catholic church

An Israeli sniper on Saturday killed a mother and her daughter and injured seven others in the only Catholic church in the Gaza Strip, said the local Latin Catholic Church authority.

“An Israeli army sniper assassinated two Christian women (Nahed and her daughter Samar) inside the parish of the Holy Family in Gaza on Saturday,” said the Latin Patriarchate's media office, based in the city of Jerusalem, though the church is in Gaza City.
