#pope Francis on Sunday sent a message against the "logic of war" during Christmas Eve Mass in St. Peter's Basilica. The Pope drew attention to ongoing conflicts, noting, in particular, the Israeli-Hamas war. "Our hearts are in Bethlehem, where the prince of peace is once more rejected by the futile logic of war," the Pope said, referring to the war sparked by Hamas' deadly attack on October 7. Presiding at the Mass, attended by 6,500 faithful, the Pope contrasted the humble birth of Jesus with the world's quest for power and material success. "We are close to our brothers and sisters suffering from war. We think of Palestine, Israel, and Ukraine. We also think of those who suffer from misery, hunger, slavery," Francis said. https://qu.ax/gGu.jpg

Simultaneously, Bethlehem witnessed a separate hour-long raid without reported detentions, while two Palestinians were detained in the reid of Ramallah. Amid a series of recent Israeli military actions across the West Bank, the Israeli forces also reportedly raided shelters in the Al-Faluja area of Jabalia in Gaza. https://pixeldrain.com/u/jajBpdLS
