Attack on Ahli Anglican Hospital Gaza – Prayers Tonight 8:30pm GMT
19th December 2023 @ 8:30 pm
Some of you will have heard of the attack on the Ahli Anglican Hospital yesterday. I will post the details below. It is a war crime, as health facilities have protected status. They have arrested most of the staff.
A member request has resulted in special online Prayers today at 8:30pm GMT. I realise this is very short notice at a time when calendars are full for Christmas, but if you can join us, please do. Please bring prayers and thoughts to share.
APF will be drawing up a statement for our social media and Sarah has already put the report out on Twitter, as most of the mainstream media have not reported it.
Please pass this zoom link on to anyone you know who would be interested.
In His peace, Sue

From Don Binder at St George’s Jerusalem 18 December 2023ALERT: IDF CLOSES AHLI ANGLICAN HOSPITAL, DETAINS STAFF 🏥It has been a great mercy for the many wounded in Gaza City that we were able to keep our Ahli Anglican Hospital open for so long.That ended today.This morning, the Israeli Army destroyed the wall of Ahli’s front entrance and detained most of the staff there. They left two junior doctors, four nurses, and two janitors to tend to over one hundred seriously wounded patients. All with no running water and no electricity.An IDF tank is currently parked on the rubble of the hospital’s entry wall, blocking all ingress and egress.If anyone reads this and has any political influence, please use it to try to save these patients and our abducted and extremely distressed hospital staff.Their very lives may now depend on forceful international intervention!
