Pope Calls For Humanitarian Corridors In Gaza

Pope Francis on Sunday (October 15) called for humanitarian corridors to help those under siege in Gaza and renewed his appeal for the release of hostages held by militant Islamist group Hamas.

"I strongly ask that the children, the sick, the elderly, women and all civilians do not become victims of the conflict," the Pope said during his weekly address to the crowds in St. Peter's square.

"Humanitarian right must be respected, above all in Gaza."_ Reuters
