As reported, during Sunday's prayer and blessing, Pope Francis said that war is always a defeat and it must stop, referring to HAMAS' attack on Israel and all other wars.

“War, any war that there is in the world – I also think of tormented Ukraine – is a defeat. War is always a defeat; it is a destruction of human fraternity”, he emphasized.
