"Pope Francis Urges Peace in Easter Message Amid Gaza Conflict"
Ailing Pope Francis, who recently canceled a Good Friday procession due to health reasons, called for an end to the Israel-Hamas conflict and urged for humanitarian aid access to Gaza. He also appealed for a Russia-Ukraine prisoner swap as the war between the countries continues. The 87-year-old Pontiff looked frail as he presided over Easter Mass, raising concerns about his health and ability to continue leading the Catholic Church. Despite recent cancellations and signs of fatigue, the Vatican has stated that there is no particular concern about his health, and Francis has expressed in a memoir that he does not currently have any serious cause to consider resigning.
