The Pope condemned Israel's crimes and the killing of children in Gaza

14 Sep 2024 - 10:38

Pope Francis condemned the killing of Palestinian children in the Gaza Strip and called the incessant bombing of Israeli schools in the area "disgusting".


Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Monitoring: “When you see the bodies of killed children when you see that, under the presumption that some guerrillas are there, a school is bombed, this is ugly,” said Pope Francis amid the ongoing atrocities committed by the Zionist regime in the Gaza Strip. 
He said he speaks on the phone with members of a Catholic parish in Gaza “every day” and “they tell me ugly things, difficult things”.
The Pope, who has supported calls for a ceasefire in the conflict, said “sometimes I think it’s a war that is too much, too much”.
Back in March, Pope Francis renewed the call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza in a peace-focused address marking Easter Sunday, the most important day on the Christian calendar.
Since the outset of Israel’s genocidal war in the Gaza Strip last October, over 41,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed in the enclave, according to the latest report of the Palestinian Ministry of Health./IRNA News
