“In these days, we are receiving very concerning news: the situation in Iran and Israel has deteriorated severely. At this delicate moment, I would urgently like to renew the call for responsibility and common sense,” said the pope.

The Pope called for the construction of a safer planet free from nuclear threats through dialogue and peace based on justice and fraternity, urging all countries to support peace and ensure security and dignity for all, Although he omitted to mention Israel as a nuclear-armed aggressor nation.

The Pope has issued a warning, apparently directed at Israel, that its continued aggression against peoples in the Middle East, including Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq and Yemen, is affecting peace and security in the region.

Recently, the Israeli Air Force carried out attacks against military and uranium enrichment facilities in Iran, as well as assassinations of soldiers and scientists, and attacks on residential areas, resulting in numerous casualties.

Israel alegaba una supuesta amenaza nuclear de Irán, y atacó a la nación persa, violando el espacio aéreo iraquí. En respuesta a estas agresiones, Irán lanzó la operación Verdadera Promesa III, dirigiendo ataques contra objetivos militares israelíes.

Los misiles balísticos iraníes alcanzaron objetivos en Tel Aviv, Haifa, la base aérea de Nevatim (donde se encuentran las aeronaves estadounidenses F-35 de quinta generación que la entidad sionista utiliza para masacrar al pueblo palestino), y las instalaciones nucleares de Dimona, vinculado a la producción de armas nucleares por el sionismo desde los años 60.
