ROME – Father Gabriel Romanelli, pastor of Gaza’s Catholic parish, has said that Pope Francis has begun calling again after a hiatus during his hospitalization and recovery, and he has condemned a proposal to turn the Gaza Strip into a luxurious beach resort.
For Romanelli, the proposal, put forward by United States President Donald Trump earlier this year, constitutes a violation of human rights and is tantamount to treating human beings like “objects.”
