Pope Francis used his Sunday blessing and address in Vatican City to say the conflict in Ukraine was an unjustified “senseless massacre” and called on leaders to stop “this repugnant war”.
“The violent aggression against Ukraine is unfortunately not slowing down,” the Pope said to the thousands of people who had gathered in St Peter’s Square.
“It is a senseless massacre where every day slaughters and atrocities are being repeated,” he added.
