Pope Condemns Massive Strike on Kyiv: His Message on the War.
Pope’s Statement on Attacks Against Ukraine
According to Novyny.live: Pope Leo XIV has voiced deep concern over the large-scale strikes hitting Ukraine, specifically the assault on Kyiv that took place on May 24. That attack claimed two lives and left 91 people injured, including children. The tragedy has sparked alarm as violence and aggression continue to inflict suffering on civilians.
On May 27, the Pope held his customary weekly general audience in St. Peter’s Square at the Vatican. During the gathering, he remarked that
“war only multiplies suffering and hatred”— Pope Leo XIV. His words underscore his stance on conflicts that lead to heavy casualties.
Meanwhile, fresh threats loom as Russia warns of further strikes on Kyiv. The Pope also stressed that
“war does not solve problems; it only deepens them”— Pope Leo XIV. These statements reflect growing global unease over events in Ukraine and their impact on the country’s population.
Pope Leo XIV’s remarks highlight the need for continued international attention on the conflict in Ukraine and its toll on civilians. Ongoing violence endangers not only human lives but also the broader stability of the region. Global cooperation in addressing this crisis remains essential to fostering peace and security in Ukraine and beyond.
