Christian Family of Beer Sheva Suffered from Iranian Missile


At least 19 people were injured on Monday when an Iranian ballistic missile struck the southern city of Beer Sheva, amid several barrages launched throughout the day. Numerous apartments were destroyed or severely damaged. Among those directly affected is one of our own families.


The apartment of M., a member of our Christian community in Beer Sheva, suffered significant damage from the blast wave following the missile’s explosion. All the windows were shattered, and much of the furniture was damaged or rendered unusable. Although the family was physically unharmed, they are now facing the emotional and practical consequences of the attack.

As a Vicariate, we are already working to support M. and her children as they deal with the aftermath of this traumatic event and begin the process of rebuilding their home and sense of security.

We invite all those who are able to join our efforts - through prayer, solidarity, or practical assistance - to help this family recover from the devastation inflicted upon them.

Together, as one community in Christ, we stand with all who suffer and strive to bring light and hope amid the darkness.
