Pope Francis' critiques of Israel's actions in Gaza are not misguided

^{Published on 2025-01-07 15:20:52 - MSN}

The continued bombardment of Gaza that has killed and maimed civilians almost every day since early October 2023 has long ago ceased to be a war of self-defense.

Pope Francis has recently voiced criticism regarding Israel's military actions in Gaza, emphasizing the need for peace and humanitarian aid. His comments, which have stirred both support and controversy, focus on the disproportionate impact on civilians, particularly children, and the destruction of essential infrastructure. The Pope has called for an immediate ceasefire and has urged the international community to facilitate humanitarian corridors to deliver aid.
