Vatican City: Pope Francis on Wednesday slammed the 鈥渢errible escalation鈥� of the conflict in Lebanon as 鈥渦nacceptable,鈥� after Israeli bombings in the south of the country targeting Hezbollah killed hundreds of people.
鈥淚 am saddened by the news coming out of Lebanon... but I hope that the international community will make every effort to stop this terrible escalation. This is unacceptable, I express my closeness to the Lebanese people, who have already suffered too much in the recent past,鈥� Francis said.
