The parish priest of Gaza's only Catholic church talks about getting daily calls from Pope Francis during the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Pope Francis had a nightly ritual for the last 18 months of his life; calling Gaza’s only Catholic Church throughout the war. CNN’s Jeremy Diamond spoke to the church’s priests about their special bond with the pope.

Pope Francis called to check in on a Christian congregation in Gaza sheltering at their church almost every night since the Gaza war began. "Today we feel like we are orphans," a spokesperson says.
