CWN Editor's Note: The Christian leaders of the Holy Land have condemned a reported “wanton attack against innocent civilians” by Israeli troops.

The February 29 incident, in which Israeli soldier reportedly fired on people seeking crowding around relief trucks to obtain food, killing scores of civilians, prompted the US to call for a “thorough investigation.”

The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem repeated a plea for “an immediate and lengthy ceasefire that allows for the speedy disbursement of relief supplies” in Gaza.
