«I heard the tremendous news from Gaza when in a field visit in the southern of Angola and I am shocked. We cannot accept that soldiers open fire on desperate people craving for bread at food aid trucks.
Before the umpteenth carnage of innocent people, I recall the Gospel: “Then was fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah: “A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping and loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children”.
How long will those mothers, fathers and children be yelling and crying? For how long will hatred prevail on love? As long as we know, more than 100 people have been killed and 750 injured. That is unbelievable, that is unacceptable!
Over the past 5 months more than 30,000 palestinians have been killed, many of them were women and children.
We can no longer accept that civilians are neglected humanitarian aid, we cannot accept that humanitarian workers have no safety assurances to conduct their work, we cannot accept that hospitals become military target.
We join our voice to those of the people calling for an immediate ceasefire as we pray for the innocent people to be heard and for their cry of pains to end».
