Vatican City, MINA – In his second public appearance since being elected as the new head of the Catholic Church, Pope Leo XIV called for an end to armed conflicts around the world, particularly in Gaza and Ukraine.

The appeal was delivered from the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica on Sunday (May 11) after leading the Regina Caeli prayer at 12:00 p.m. local time, according to a report by MEMO.

Tens of thousands of Catholics from around the world gathered at St. Peter’s Square to listen to the Pope’s message of peace. In his address, the Pope emphasized the importance of dialogue, reconciliation, and solidarity as essential paths to lasting peace.

“We are called to be peacemakers, not only through words but with real actions. Conflict brings only suffering, destruction, and emptiness. It is time for humanity to unite and end this violence,” the Pope said with a hopeful tone.
