Rome, SANA-Pope Leo XIV expressed particular concern for the population of Gaza renewing appeals for a ceasefire.
Vatican news website quoted Pope as saying “I am following with deep concern the extremely grave humanitarian situation in Gaza, where the civilian population is being crushed by hunger and continues to be exposed to violence and death.”
He renewed appeals for a ceasefire, and full respect for international humanitarian law.
Humanitarian organizations have warned of mass famine spreading throughout the Gaza Strip, following the depletion of food supplies since Israel cut off all supplies to the Strip last March, in addition to preventing these organizations from entering or delivering aid.
