Ukrainian officials have announced that they have discovered hundreds of bodies, some with their hands tied to stakes, buried in land Ukrainians recaptured from Russian forces
Ukrainians are treated with brutality, torture and atrocities, Pope Francis said today, describing the Ukrainians as a “noble” people who bear witness.
At the end of his homily in St. Peter’s Square, the pope, without naming Russia, shared with the gathered crowd his conversation yesterday with Cardinal Konrad Krachevski, his head of charitable aid, who is bringing aid to Ukraine. .
Vatican media reported that Kraczewski, who is Polish, had to run for cover last week when he came under fire while delivering aid, along with the Catholic bishop, a Protestant bishop and a Ukrainian soldier.
The same sources said Krachevsky visited mass graves outside Izium, in northeastern Ukraine.
“Kraszewski told me about the pain of these people, about the savagery, the atrocities, the tortured corpses that they discover. Let us unite with these people, so noble and martyred“, said the pontiff.
Ukrainian officials have announced that they have discovered hundreds of bodies, some with their hands tied to stakes, buried in land retaken from Ukrainians by Russian forces, which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called evidence of war crimes.
