According to foreign media reports on the 1st (local time), the Pope expressed his sorrow to thousands of believers gathered at St. Peter's Square, saying, "Mariupol has been severely destroyed."


The Pope described the war in Ukraine as a terrible regression of humanity and revealed that he is weeping and suffering.



In Catholicism, May is designated as the month of the Virgin Mary, during which many events praising the Virgin Mary are held. The Pope said his heart is in the city of the Virgin Mary but is currently in Mariupol, which has been barbarically bombed and destroyed. Mariupol is a city named after the Virgin Mary.
