Pope Francis meets a group of families of victims of the 2020 devastating explosion at the port of Beirut, expressing solidarity in their quest for truth and justice, and again invokes peace in the Middle East.Greeting the 30-member delegation in the Consistory Hall on Monday, Pope Francis conveyed his closeness to the Lebanese families, saying that he continues to pray for them and shares in their grief.
The disaster highlighted issues of corruption, mismanagement, and negligence within the Lebanese government. Investigations into the incident revealed failures at multiple levels of government and port authorities, contributing to ongoing political and social turmoil in Lebanon. The Pope also reflected on the broader suffering in the region with the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas dangerously close to a full-out regional war, reiterating that war is a failure of politics and humanity.
Pope Francis assured the families of the Church's continuous support, both in prayer and through concrete acts of charity. “You are not alone, and we will never abandon you, “ he said.
