Pope Francis issues plea for ceasefire in Israel-Hamas conflict
Pope Francis said on Sunday that he “begs” in God’s name for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.
“I continue to think about the serious situation in Palestine and in Israel where many, many people have lost their lives. In God’s name, I beg you to stop: cease using weapons!" the pope said on X, formerly Twitter.
“I hope that avenues will be pursued so that an escalation of the conflict might be absolutely avoided,” the pontiff added.
