>> The emergency committee of Gaza City’s Holy Family Church said Wednesday that it will remain at the compound to support priests, nuns and civilians sheltering there, even as Israel prepares to occupy the city.

>> … its decision follows a joint declaration by the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem and the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem ...

>> Hundreds of thousands of civilians remain in Gaza City, including Christians sheltering at the Greek Orthodox compound of Saint Porphyrius and the Holy Family compound, according to the statement.

>> The patriarchates said many of those inside the compounds are “weakened and malnourished due to the hardships of the last months,” warning that fleeing south “would be nothing less than a death sentence.”
