Published 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
# Gaza's Christians Mark Christmas Amid Ceasefire
In a powerful testament to human resilience, Gaza's small Christian community prepares to celebrate Christmas under a fragile ceasefire. At Holy Family Church, the only Catholic parish in Gaza Strip, worshippers gather despite the visible scars of conflict surrounding them. One Palestinian called it a "new beginning" amid years of devastation.
This modest observance in Gaza contrasts with the revived celebrations in Bethlehem, where thousands have returned to Manger Square after two years of subdued holidays. Families in Gaza light candles not just in celebration, but in remembrance of those lost.
Meanwhile, global tensions continue elsewhere. Ukraine's Zelenskyy suggests a peace deal is closer following U.S. talks, while Moscow faces explosions that have claimed lives, including police officers.
