Holy Father Pope Francis while addressing the faithful gathered at St. Peter’s Square on Divine Mercy Sunday, appealed for peace in Syria. His Holiness Pope Francis highlighted that bombardments in Syria have claimed dozens of victims, many of them women and children and in addition, there is news that the bombs contained chemical substances.

As reported by Vatican Radio, Holy Father remarked that “Let us pray for all the deceased, for the wounded, for the families who suffer. There is no good war or bad war. There is nothing, nothing that can justify the use of such instruments of extermination against unarmed people and populations.”
