ROME, Italy
Pope Francis invited faithful on Wednesday to pray for all people suffering in conflicts around the world, and urged the liberation of prisoners of war.
"Our thought at this
time, all of us, goes to the populations at war. Let's think of the Holy Land,
Palestine, Israel, let's think of Ukraine, of the martyred Ukraine", he
said.
"Let us think of the
prisoners of war that may the Lord move the will to free them all," he
continued.
He then condemned torture:
"it's not human" he said, adding that it hurts "the dignity of
the person."
The Pope has often called for
an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, asking conflicting parties to follow the path
of negotiations.
During easter Pope Francis
called for an immediate ceasefire and the release of all Israeli hostages.
