Pope hopes Gaza plan achieves 'desired results' soon

Pope Leo hopes that a plan to end the war in Gaza would soon reach the "desired results", he said on Sunday after acknowledging the significant steps made in negotiations to end the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

Speaking during his weekly Angelus prayer, the pontiff asked all relevant parties to commit to the peace process, emphasizing the urgent need to end the conflict and establish a "just and lasting peace."

"In recent hours, amid the dramatic situation in the Middle East, some significant steps forward have been taken in the peace negotiations, which I hope will soon achieve the desired results," the pope told faithful gathered in St. Peter's Square.

He also renewed calls for a permanent ceasefire in the nearly two-year conflict and the release of hostages held in Gaza.
