Pope Leo XIV has called for an end to the violence in Yemen as he addressed the faithful from the window over St Peter’s Square, Al Jazeera reports.
He said he was particularly concerned about the humanitarian situation in the southwestern Yemeni city of Taiz, “where the population suffers due to the lack of food, water and medical assistance”.
“I’m making a heartfelt appeal for the hostilities to stop so that the people in Yemen and across the entire region can live in peace,” he said.
