11:04Now PlayingMark Regev, a senior adviser to the Israeli prime minister has said: "We don't shoot people who are going to church to pray, it just doesn't happen, that's not the way the IDF operates".
Mr Regev was responding to reports that an Israeli military sniper shot and killed two women inside the Holy Family Parish in Gaza City on Saturday, according to the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem.
The Israeli military has denied it targets civilians, with a spokesperson saying: "An initial review suggests that IDF troops, who were operating against Hamas terrorists in the area, operated against a threat that they identified in the area of the church. The IDF is conducting a thorough review of the incident."
