Francis regularly spoke out against what he called “the bombing of children” in Gaza, saying “this is cruelty, not war.” In his last book, the late Pope demanded a formal investigation of Israeli genocide in Gaza, writing:

“This should be studied carefully to determine whether (the situation) corresponds to th
