Vatican City,
Today marks the 11th day of Russia’s war on Ukraine. In this, many civilians and soldiers from both countries have lost their lives. Millions of people from various countries are fleeing Ukraine in the wake of the war. Russian forces have captured several cities in Ukraine, including Gershon. Russia also owns two of the country’s nuclear power plants.
Thousands of soldiers and civilians from both countries have been injured in a Russian military offensive in Ukraine.
Pope Francis has expressed regret that blood and tears are flowing in Ukraine.
“Blood and tears are flowing in Ukraine,” he said on Twitter. This is not just a military operation. A war that sows death, disaster, and misery. We need to start humanitarian operations for the refugees. Humanitarian routes must be truly protected. I sincerely request that guaranteed assistance and access be provided to the besieged areas. “
