Pope Leo describes Middle East war as a ‘scandal’ to humanity

  

 Pope Leo on Sunday condemned the ongoing war in the Middle East, calling the death and suffering it has caused a “scandal to the whole human family” and urging an immediate ceasefire. Speaking during his weekly Angelus prayer at St. Peter’s Square, the pope said he follows the conflict, along with other war-torn regions, with “dismay.”

What hurts them hurts the whole of humanity,” Leo said. He renewed his call for prayer and action to end hostilities and create a path toward lasting peace.
