Pope Francis renews appeal to avoid escalation in Middle East

Pope Francis on Wednesday renewed his appeal to avoid escalation of conflict in the Middle East, Anadolu Agency reports citing the Vatican News.

“I reiterate my appeal to all parties involved to ensure that the conflict does not spread and to immediately cease fire on all fronts, starting from Gaza where the humanitarian situation is extremely serious and unsustainable,” the pontiff said while addressing the weekly general audience.

“I pray that the sincere search for peace will extinguish strife, love will overcome hatred and revenge will be disarmed by forgiveness,” he added.

The pope also asked the faithful to join his prayers for the “war-torn peoples” of Ukraine, Myanmar and Sudan.
