Pope Francis regrets Israel-Palestine escalating conflict (+Photo)

Vatican City, Feb 26 (Prensa Latina) After his usual Angelus prayer at St. Peter's Square at noon on Sunday, Pope Francis lamented the escalating conflict between Israel and Palestine and called for peace.

The Pope told thousands of people gathered in front of the St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican that “painful news is still coming from the Holy Land: many people, including children, have been killed.”

How can we put an end to this spiral of violence?, Francis asked, adding that “I renewed my appeal that dialogue may reign over hatred and revenge. I pray to God for the Palestinians and Israelis, so they may find the road of fraternity and peace, with the help of the international community.”
