Pope Leo has expressed “profound sorrow for all the victims of the bombings” in the region, Al Jazeera reports, citing Vatican News.
Pope Leo said that those killed included “many innocents, including many children”, as well as “those who were helping them, such as Father Pierre El-Rahi”, a Maronite priest killed in an Israeli attack on Lebanon’s Qlayaa on Monday.
The pope “prays that every hostility may cease as soon as possible”, the report said.
