Speaking to thousands of people in St Peter’s Square for his Sunday blessing, Pope Francis condemned the invasion of Ukraine, saying the “unacceptable armed aggression” must stop. “In the name of God, I ask you: stop this massacre,” the pope said, adding that Ukrainian cities risked “being reduced to cemeteries”. He also emphasized the impact on children. The pope has not used the word “Russia” in his condemnations of the war.
