‘It Was A Mistake…’ Israel ADMITS “Mistake” After Gaza Church Strikes | Trump BLASTS Netanyahu

Gaza Church Strike: In a rare public rebuke, President Trump personally phoned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address the Israeli strike on Gaza's only Catholic Church, the Holy Family Church. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Trump’s reaction was "not positive," and said Netanyahu agreed the strike was a mistake. Israel has expressed deep regret, stating stray ammunition hit the church, killing three civilians and injuring nine, including the parish priest. The incident, which has drawn international condemnation—from the Vatican to Italy and France—adds fresh strain to U.S.–Israel relations. Netanyahu pledged a full investigation, emphasizing Israel’s commitment to protecting civilians and holy sites. As global outrage mounts over one of Gaza's most sacred landmarks being struck, Trump's demand for accountability signals growing U.S. intolerance of collateral harm amidst the Gaza conflict. #TrumpNetanyahuCall #GazaChurchStrike #HolyFamilyChurch #IsraelMistake #UScallsForJustice #CollateralDamage #GazaConflict #CatholicChurchGaza #TrumpRebukesIsrael #NetanyahuRegrets #InternationalCondemnation #VaticanResponse #ProtectCivilians #HumanitarianCrisis #MiddleEastDiplomacy #WarEthics #ReligiousSiteSafety #GazaWar #TrumpDiplomacy #GlobalOutrage ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.125~
