In Gaza, Palestinian Territories, Christians Are Buried in Muslim Cemeteries During War

Christians in Gaza have been buried in Muslim cemeteries during the war, according to a report from Maariv headlined “Gaza war: Christians buried in Muslim cemeteries.”

The report cites a source identified as Al-Sultan, who said Israel had not yet allowed the residents of northern Gaza to return home. The Christian cemetery is located in that northern area, according to the same account.

The report says the Al-Sultan cemetery recently received the body of a Christian man, Hani Suheil Abu Dawud. It was too dangerous for his family to travel within the siege, the report states, and the family’s situation during a time of loss reflects the comfort the grieving need (Psalm 34:18).
