Pope Leo XIV has issued repeated and urgent appeals for an immediate ceasefire and humanitarian aid in Gaza, expressing grave concern over the worsening crisis of starvation and violence affecting civilians. In recent days, the Pope has spoken directly with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, condemning the indiscriminate use of force, forced displacement, and attacks on religious sites. The Vatican has called for full respect of humanitarian law and renewed its support for a two-state solution to end the conflict. Humanitarian organizations and the UN report catastrophic conditions, with widespread hunger and medical staff struggling to cope. Despite the Pope's appeals, the crisis continues to escalate, with international calls for urgent intervention growing louder.
