‘People do not feel truly safe’: Gaza’s nightmare is far from over

After more than 100 days of ceasefire, a fragile calm in the enclave brings relief but also deep uncertainty
‘People do not feel truly safe’: Gaza’s nightmare is far from over

More than one hundred days have passed since Israel and Hamas, under the mediation of the United States and several regional actors, agreed to lay down their arms. The ceasefire ended the most intense phase of a war that had devastated Gaza for more than two years, leaving behind staggering human and material losses.

Under the agreement, all living Israeli hostages were returned and exchanged for Palestinian prisoners. Israeli forces withdrew from roughly 45% of Gaza. Humanitarian aid, long blocked or severely restricted, began to move in again.

For Gaza’s two million residents, the ceasefire has brought moments of relief – but also a lingering sense that the calm could shatter at any moment.

Rami Al Mughari, a journalist from Al Meghazi camp in central Gaza, who has covered the conflict since its earliest days, says daily life has changed in noticeable but uneven ways.

“Access to water has become easier,” he said. “Of course it depends on where you are based in the Gaza Strip but since the ceasefire came into effect, we started feeling that water is less of an issue now.”


Food availability has also improved. Markets that once stood nearly empty during the height of the war now carry more goods, and families are better able to put food on the table. Still, prices remain high, and many households continue to rely heavily on assistance from international organizations.

Movement within Gaza has become easier as well. Palestinians can now travel between different parts of the enclave, something that was often impossible during the fighting. But these journeys are frequently slowed by roads destroyed by Israeli bombardment, piles of rubble, and harsh weather conditions.

Electricity has partially returned, mainly through private suppliers, allowing families to power lights and appliances for limited periods. Yet, access remains unequal and for many households the cost makes regular use impossible, reinforcing the sense that even basic services remain fragile and out of reach.

No light at the end of the tunnel?

Despite these improvements, the ceasefire has not brought a true sense of safety.

The intensity of Israeli bombardment has dropped significantly compared with the peak of the war. Large-scale attacks have largely stopped, replaced by smaller, more targeted Israeli military operations carried out intermittently.

But airstrikes still occur abruptly. Israel often says these attacks target Hamas operatives, other armed groups, or individuals approaching the so-called buffer or “yellow” line. Regardless of the stated justification, the impact on civilians has been severe. More than 440 Palestinians have been killed during Israeli military actions since the ceasefire began.

“Because of this reality, people do not feel truly safe. Safety is fragile and unpredictable. Palestinians can be harmed at any time: on the streets, in alleys, or inside residential areas. The ceasefire has reduced violence, but it has not eliminated fear or insecurity.”

RT

Humanitarian organizations working in Gaza say this ongoing instability compounds the enormous damage already inflicted by the war.

Pat Griffiths, the spokesman for the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Jerusalem, says the consequences of prolonged violence will shape life in Gaza for years.

“The impact of two years of devastating violence are going to reverberate for years in Gaza. Even now, people can still queue for food, walk long distances for clean water. People living with disability or chronic health conditions struggle to access the care they need – just as those requiring emergency treatment or surgery still do. Schools and universities have been damaged or destroyed, and it’s incredibly difficult for people to return to study while basic needs like access to adequate electricity, shelter, water or employment need to be addressed. All those needs remain in Gaza right now”.


After 27 months of active hostilities, virtually all of Gaza’s critical infrastructure has been affected. 66% of all structures have sustained damage. Power stations, water and sanitation networks, hospitals, clinics, roads, and schools have been fully or partially destroyed.

There has been neither enough time nor sufficient access to begin long-term reconstruction. Heavy machinery, building materials, and technical expertise remain limited or blocked, leaving most rebuilding efforts stalled.

This infrastructure is essential not only for economic recovery, but for basic human survival – supplying electricity, safe drinking water, sanitation services, and functioning medical care. Without it, humanitarian aid can only provide temporary relief.

Medical access remains one of Gaza’s most urgent crises. Hospitals are overwhelmed, understaffed, and undersupplied. Patients with chronic illnesses, including thousands with cancer, face enormous obstacles in receiving treatment.

Leaving Gaza for medical care remains extremely difficult. Although there have been announcements and reports that the Rafah crossing with Egypt could reopen during the second phase of the ceasefire, nothing tangible has yet been done.

“The continued closure has devastating consequences,” says Al Mughari. “Patients in need of specialized care remain trapped. Students accepted to universities abroad cannot leave. Families separated by the war remain divided, with no clear timeline for reunification.”

RT


Al Mughari describes a cycle of hope and disappointment that has come to define life since the ceasefire.

“I personally hoped that 2026 would bring real change. Unfortunately, since the ceasefire announcement and the start of the new year, nothing meaningful has happened. The promised improvements have not materialized.”

He says lasting recovery depends on sustained international pressure – not just statements of support.

“Real recovery will only be possible if international actors, especially those who mediated the ceasefire, ensure that the agreement moves forward, that Israel does not obstruct the second phase, and that Palestinians receive genuine support.”


He lists priorities that remain unmet: beginning large-scale reconstruction, providing proper shelter for displaced families, rebuilding the health system, ensuring continuous food supplies, and allowing freedom of movement through Rafah.

“Without these steps,” Al Mughari said, “the ceasefire remains incomplete, fragile, and insufficient to restore dignity or stability to life in Gaza.”

Aid organizations say they are capable of doing far more – if restrictions were lifted.

“We have the capacity to do more to help Palestinians in Gaza, we just need the means to do more,” Griffiths said. “Restrictions on the amount of assistance that are allowed to reach people there make it incredibly difficult to address urgent and large-scale needs – like shelter.”

He added that limits on aid also prevent people from accessing essential services such as electricity, water, health care, and education.

“That’s why we continue to advocate and call for full and unimpeded access for assistance into Gaza.”

Even where aid is delivered, it remains temporary by design.

RT


“Humanitarian organizations are responding to the best of their current capacity, given the security situation, but these are always designed as temporary solutions,”
 Griffiths said. “There are not enough materials, heavy machinery, or equipment to meet the needs of the population, or to have adequate planning or construction for permanent solutions.”

“We call for the full and unimpeded access of humanitarian assistance into Gaza. There are too many lives at stake for anything less.”

Taking matters into own hands

Still, amid the devastation, Al Mughari says Palestinians are not waiting passively for help.

“What gives me hope is that Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, began their own recovering process, without waiting for the international community of players to come in to intervene.”

Across Gaza, small restaurants have reopened. Universities, including the Islamic University and other local institutions, have resumed limited educational activities. Community groups are clearing rubble, repairing buildings, and restoring services with whatever resources they can find.

“Palestinians are trying to cope with the situation,” Al Mughari said, “which gives all of us some kind of a hope that things might get better soon”.

More than 100 days after the ceasefire, Gaza exists in a fragile in-between state – no longer engulfed in a full-scale war, but far from peace. The quiet offers a chance, but without decisive political movement and genuine reconstruction, it may remain only a pause in a much longer struggle.

Shocking Miracle in America: Here’s How Native Americans Knew Jesus Before the Church



https://youtu.be/-Sn8gOBXowc?si=5HcL8cDRgrCPiCWC

Shocking Miracle in America: Here’s How Native Americans Knew Jesus Before the Church
Is it possible that a Native American tribe already knew the Gospel, the Rosary, and the Mass before ever seeing a missionary—or even a white man? The answer is yes, and it is one of the most documented and shocking miracles in the history of the Church. In this video, we take you to the Texas desert in 1629. When the Franciscan friars arrived, ready for martyrdom, they found something unimaginable: a tribe coming toward them with crosses in their hands, asking for Baptism. When the friars asked, “Who taught you all this?”, the Native people answered: “The Lady in Blue who comes down from the sky.” Together, we will discover:
  • The true story of the Jumano people and their mysterious encounter.
  • Who Sister María of Jesus of Ágreda was: the Spanish mystic who evangelized America without ever leaving her cloistered cell.
  • The phenomenon of bilocation: the same mystical gift attributed to Padre Pio, supported by historical investigations and examined by the Inquisition.
  • The overwhelming evidence that left the missionaries of that time speechless.
This story reveals a powerful truth: for God there are no borders, no oceans, and no distances.

Mary of Agreda in America - Part I

A ‘Lady in Blue’ Instructs Indians
in the Southwest


Margaret C. Galitzin The Spanish soldiers and missionaries had been exploring our vast Southwest for almost one century when the Pilgrims, members of a radical Protestant sect, established their first stable colony at Plymouth Rock in 1620. Unlike those Puritans, who aimed only to find a safe place for their sect to prosper, the Spaniards had a dual mission. They definnitely aimed to explore and settle the West, but another mission of equal import to the Crown was to convert the native Indians to the Catholic Faith.

By 1598, the Franciscan friars who accompanied the Spanish explorers and settlers had established a chain of missions to work with the Pueblo Indians and other tribes in the unsettled Colony of New Mexico. In 1623, Fray Alonso de Benavides arrived from Mexico to the Santa Fe Mission as the first Superior of the Franciscan Missions of New Mexico and the first commissioner of the Inquisition for the Colony. He was known not only for his capacity and energy, but also for his great missionary zeal.

He arrived with a small reinforcement of other Franciscan friars who would embark on the dangerous missionary labor in the expansive, unsettled territory of New Mexico. As in so many epic works in History, a few men, moved by supernatural zeal for the cause of God, undertook a work much larger than their human forces.

One of the most fascinating episodes of this time involves the missionary efforts of a Spanish Abbess who worked in New Mexico, Arizona and Texas from 1620 to 1631. She instructed various Indian tribes in the Catholic Faith and told them how to find the Franciscan Mission to ask for priests to come to baptize their people. Her name was Mother Mary of Jesus of Agreda, a Conceptionist nun who, nonetheless, never left her Convent in Spain.

An Abbess living in Spain bilocates to America

Mary of Agreda

Without leaving her convent in Spain Mother Mary of Agreda instructed Indians in the U.S.
Her extraordinary bilocations to the New World were a source of wonder to the Spanish Church and Crown. The authenticity of the miracle of her more than 500 visits to America was carefully examined and documented by the proper authorities to ensure that there was no fraud or error. She was also carefully examined twice by the Inquisition in the years 1635 and 1650.

In his Memorial of 1630, a report on the state of the missions and colony, Fr. Benavides made a precise account of the Indians who had been instructed by the “Lady in Blue.” His Memorial of 1634, written after he had met and visited with Mother Mary of Agreda in 1631, also describes that meeting and his favorable impressions of the Conceptionist Abbess (see Part Two). When he left Agreda, Fr. Benavides asked Mary of Agreda to write a letter addressed to the missionaries of the New World. Her words inspired religious to labor in the American missionary fields for many years to come.

That Mary of Agreda played an influential role in our country is undeniable. Some years later Fr. Eusebio Kino found old Indians in New Mexico and Arizona who told stories about how a beautiful white woman dressed in blue had spoken to them about the Catholic Faith. Fr. Junipero Serra wrote that it was the “Seraphic Mother Mary of Jesus” who had inspired him to work in the vineyard of the Lord in California. (1)

Today Mother Mary of Agreda is better known for her momentous work on the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary, The Mystical City of God.
 



Perhaps one reason that American Catholics know so little about her well-documented bilocations to America is because for centuries Friar Benavides' 
Memorials were concealed in the Archives of the Propaganda Fide in Rome and unknown to the English speaking world. His expanded 1634 Memorial was only translated into English and made available to the public in 1945. (2) Many of the details from this article were taken from that document, as well as from several scholarly articles on the topic. (3)

A command for an inquiry

In 1627, Fr. Sebastian Marcilla, the confessor of Mother Mary of Agreda in Spain, sent a report about her work among the American Indians to the Archbishop of Mexico, Francisco de Manso. He told the Prelate that the young Abbess – age 25 - said that she was visiting Indian villages in New Mexico in some supernatural manner and was teaching the natives the Catholic Faith. Even though she spoke Spanish, the Indians understood her, and she understood them when they replied in their native dialect. The confessor had a favorable impression of the Conceptionist nun and was inclined to believe her words.

The Archbishop ordered Fr. Benavides, who was being transferred from New Spain to New Mexico, to make a careful inquiry to be carried out “with the exactness, faithfulness and devotion that such a grave matter requires.” It is noteworthy that Fr. Benavides had been invested with two offices in New Mexico – that of Superior and that of Inquisitor – and had all the resources available to make a serious inquiry.

The Archbishop asked that he should find out whether new tribes - the Tejas [Texans], Chillescas, Jumanos and Caburcos - already had “some knowledge of the Faith” and “in what manner and by what means Our Lord has manifested it.”

Indians requesting Baptism

In the summer of 1629, a delegation of 50 Jumanos arrived at Isleta, a Pueblo mission near present day Albuquerque, requesting priests to return with them and baptize their people. The Jumanos were an as yet uncatechized tribe who hunted and traded over a wide area in the Plains east of New Mexico – today the Panhandle or South Plains region of Texas.

Mary Agreda preaching to Indians

Mary of Agreda teaching the Indians
For the past six years, smaller delegations of Jumanos had come at about the same time to Isleta to speak to Fr. Juan de Salas, a much respected missionary who had established the church in Isleta in 1613. Each year, the Indians made the same plea and spoke about a woman who had sent them. They were the first to report the visits of the “Lady in Blue.” But the story was disregarded as impossible.

To travel from Isleta to the eastern Plains was a long and dangerous trek – over 300 miles through the hostile lands of the Apache. At that time, the missionaries lacked both the priests and the necessary soldiers to make the trip and establish a new outpost, so the mission to the Jumanos was delayed.

This year, when the Jumanos party arrived, Fr. De Salas was at the chapter meeting at the Franciscan headquarters in Santo Domingo. A messenger was sent to him with the news about the delegation, and he informed the new Superior about the strange story of a lady who was supposedly teaching the Catholic faith to the Indians.

Fr. Benavides, who had received specific instructions from the Franciscan general regarding this very topic, was very interested to know more. He decided to return with Fr. De Salas to Isleta in order to question the Indian party and ask how they had come to have knowledge of the Faith.

In his Memorial to Pope Urban VIII, he reported the results of his inquiry:

“We called the Jumanos to the monastery and asked them their reason for coming every year to ask for baptism with such insistence. Seeing a portrait of Mother Luisa [another Spanish Franciscan sister in Spain with a reputation for holiness] in the monastery, they said, ‘A woman in similar garb wanders among us there, always preaching, but her face is not old like this, but young and beautiful.’

“Asked why they had not told us this before, they answered, ‘Because you did not ask, and we thought she was here also.’”

The Indians called the woman the “Lady in Blue” because of the blue mantle she wore. She would appear among them, the Jumanos representatives said, and instruct them about the true God and His holy law. The party, which included 12 chiefs, included representatives of other tribes, allies of the Jumanos. In Fr. Benavides’s 1630 Memorial, he notes that they told him “a woman used to preach to each one of them in his own tongue” [emphasis added].

It was this woman who had insisted they should ask the missionaries to be baptized and told them how to find them. At times, they said, the 'Lady in Blue' was hidden from them, and they did not know where she went or how to find her.

Missionaries find a field ready for harvest

Fr. Benavides sent two missionaries, Fr. Juan de Salas and Fr. Diego López, accompanied by three soldiers, on the apostolic mission to the Jumanos. After traveling several hundred miles east through the dangerous Apache territory, the weary expedition was met by a dozen Indians from the Jumanos tribe. They had been sent to greet them and accompany them on the last few days journey, they affirmed, by the 'Lady in Blue' who had alerted them of their proximity.

Isleta Mission

The Church of Corpus Christi at the Isleta Mission, the oldest operating church in the U.S.
As the friars drew near the tribe, they saw in amazement a procession of men, women and children coming to meet them. At its head were Indians carrying two crosses decorated with garlands of flowers. With great respect the Indians kissed the crucifixes the Franciscans wore around their necks.

“They learned from the Indians that the same nun had instructed them as to how they should come out in procession to receive them, and she had helped them to decorate the crosses," Fr. Benavides wrote in his Memorial. Many of the Indians immediately began to clamor to be baptized.

The missionaries found that the Indians were already instructed in the Faith and eager to learn more. Their astonishment increased as messengers arrived from neighboring Indian tribes who pleaded for the priests to come to them also. They said that the same lady in blue had catechized them and told them to seek out the missionaries for baptism.

After a while the missionaries had to return to the San Antonio Mission to report to Fr. Benavides the astounding things they had found before he traveled to New Spain, where he would report to the Archbishop and Viceroy on the missionary work and potential in New Mexico.

A great miracle

Before they left, Fr. Juan de Salas told them that, until new missionaries arrived, “they should flock every day, as they were wont, to pray before a Cross which they had set up on a pedestal.”

But this did not satisfy the Jumanos Chief, who entreated the priests to cure the sick, “for you are priests of God and can do much with that holy cross.”

The infirm, numbering about 200, were brought together in one place. The priests made the Sign of the Cross over them, read the Gospel according to St. Luke and invoked Our Lady and St. Francis. To reward their faith and prepare the way for great conversions, God worked a miracle. All the sick arose healed. Amid great rejoicing, the missionaries left the village to begin the long and risky return journey to New Mexico.

Along the way, they were met by “ambassadors” from other tribes, the Quiviras and Aixaos. These Indians also asked for the priests to come to baptize their people and told them the 'Lady in Blue' had told them where to find the missionaries. These ambassadors accompanied the priests to New Mexico.

Report to the Viceroy and Archbishop

The missionaries returned shortly before Fr. Benavides departure for Mexico. When he heard the extraordinary account of what the missionaries had found, he included the story of the “Lady in Blue” and her miraculous work to convert the Jumanos in his report.

Mystical City of God

Mary of Agreda is better known for her work The Mystical City of God
His Memorial of 1630 gives a careful description of the missionary work that had been accomplished in the New Mexico Colony. The 111-page document described over 60,000 Christianized natives residing in 90 pueblos, divided into 25 districts.

The Viceroy and Archbishop Francisco de Manso were very impressed with his account and dispatched him to Madrid "to inform his Majesty, as the head of all, of the notable and unusual things that were happening.”

There were many pressing matters pertaining to the Mission Colonies that Fr. Benavides needed to address with the authorities in Spain. He also hoped to meet Mother Mary of Agreda in order to question her and learn for certain if she were the 'Lady in Blue' who had brought the Gospel of Christ over the oceans to the Indians of New Mexico.

Ágreda

Ágreda
 is a municipality located in the province of Soria, in the autonomous community of Castile and León, Spain.

Ágreda is the regional services center in the Northeast of the province of Soria. Its abundant heritage as well as the local fiestas of the Virgin, and the Archangel Michael attract many tourists.

History

In the current location of the town there was an ancient Celtiberic settlement. During the Middle Ages Ágreda became more significant as a strategic border location between the kingdoms of Castile and Aragon, as well as an important center of the arts and handcrafts where Christians, Jews and Arab-descendants lived in peace. Ágreda is therefore known as the town of the three cultures.

After the expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1492, a royal decree of January 1493 noted that the town acquired the former synagogue to use as its council hall. Because Jewish taxes were no longer available, the Crown required the municipality itself to fund the building's renovation.[2]

The renowned abbess María de Jesús was born in Ágreda and resided there throughout her life. She was named a Venerable of the Roman Catholic Church shortly after her death in 1665, but has not yet been beatified or officially canonized as a saint. She was well known as a visionary of her times, and as a counselor to King Philip IV through a correspondence that lasted throughout each of their lifetimes and is documented in over six hundred letters between them. Over the years the king gave the abbess a few commemorative gifts[3] which are on display today in the convent, yet there seems to be no undue favoritism to the region because of their friendship.
