The following is a statement from The Most Reverend Alfred A. Schlert, Bishop of Allentown, concerning the dire conditions in Gaza:
“The man-made famine in Gaza is unconscionable. No military or political strategy can justify the starvation of men, women, and especially children. I commend efforts by the international community, and especially by the US government, to alleviate this crisis that denies a whole population of the necessities to sustain life. May we all pray for those most effected and pray also for the leaders of nations who can most bring about immediate relief to a starving population."
