The Catholic Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem, together with other Christian churches, published statements on the war on October 7 and 13. Israel objected to both statements because, from Israel's point of view, they lacked a clear condemnation of the attacker Hamas.

In der Online-Pressekonferenz diesen Montag äußerte der Jerusalemer Patriarch dazu: „Auch ich bin irritiert. Aus Respekt vor den anderen Kirchen möchte ich dem nichts hinzufügen", sagte der Kardinal. „Um es klar zu sagen: Die Hamas hat barbarische Akte in Israel angerichtet."

"We call on the Israeli government to stop the expulsion of the civilian population, especially families, and to stop calling for them to flee and to allow them to return," Pax Christi continued. Hunger, denial of supplies and expulsion must not be a weapon of war. To protect the civilian population, Pax Christi called for international observers, peacekeepers and humanitarian corridors. Pax Christi's appeal continued: "Only the future prospects for both peoples with Israel's right to exist and the creation of an independent Palestinian state and serious political negotiations with the support of the international community support our hopes for lasting peace in the region."

Rachel Goldberg's 23-year-old son Hersh was taken to Gaza along with 240 other hostages on October 7. In a short video from Jerusalem by our correspondent Roberto Cetera, Goldberg said: "Holy Father, thank you for taking the time to help us free the 240 people buried alive under Gaza. They come from different religions, Muslims, Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists. They are human beings, they are God's children, and we really appreciate you trying to bring them all back home to their families."

According to Israeli media reports, Hamas leader Ismail Hanijeh also published a statement on Telegram after Israel and Hamas were close to reaching an agreement on a ceasefire.

According to media reports, we are "closer than ever" to an agreement on the release of hostages, said John Kirby, spokesman for the National Security Council in the White House, at a press conference on Monday evening. US President Joe Biden also expressed confidence on Monday that such an agreement could be reached "soon". There has been no Israeli confirmation of a possible hostage agreement for the time being.

Dialogue is the only way to peace

The Pope's prepared text then moved on to the Middle East conflict. In St. Peter's Square, around 12,000 people watched the reading of the Pope's words on video screens. "Today we thank God that there is finally a ceasefire between Israel and Palestine and that some hostages have been released. Let us pray that they are all released as soon as possible - think of their families! - that more humanitarian aid comes to Gaza and that we insist on dialogue: that is the only way, the only way to peace. Those who do not want dialogue do not want peace either."

But the Pope had a third thing on his mind: warning about the consequences of climate change.

Pope's appeal for peace

With regard to the Middle East conflict, Francis has repeatedly called for a ceasefire and negotiations, for the release of hostages and for humanitarian aid for the suffering population. On November 22, 2023, the Pope met on two separate occasions with relatives of Israeli hostages and a group of Palestinians whose relatives are paying the high price of the war in Gaza. "Francis wants to express his spiritual closeness to the suffering of the people," his spokesman Matteo Bruni said at the time.

Israel responded to the terrorist attack on October 7, 2023, with a major assault on the Gaza Strip, in which, according to Palestinian sources, more than 30,000 people have died to date.
