The Pontiff noted that these days Ukraine is experiencing constant shelling, which "exposes the entire population to the winter cold."
I follow what is happening with pain, I am close to those who suffer, and I pray for all of them. The prolongation of hostilities, with increasingly serious consequences for the civilian population, deepens the rift between peoples and distances a just and lasting peace. I encourage everyone to redouble their efforts to end this war.
said Pope Leo XIV.
Recall
Earlier this month, Pope Francis called on the international community and the aggressor to stop striking Ukraine's civilian infrastructure, as intensifying cold makes these attacks particularly painful. The Pontiff prays for the victims and calls for an end to violence and a resumption of efforts for peace.
