“Yesterday’s was the latest ignoble attack on fleeing refugees,” the Holy Father said.
“May (God) in a particular way sustain the efforts of those who are actively working to bring healing and comfort to the civilian population of Syria, the beloved and martyred Syria, who are victims of a war that does not cease to sow horror and death.”
